Robotics is increasing its presence in the machine tool sector. One interesting application for robot assisted machining involves a robot locally increasing the stiffness of a thin walled part to suppress regenerative vibrations and minimize part deformations during machining. Simulating the dynamics improvement achieved when coupling the robot and the part is of high concern, in order to guarantee the appropriate performance of the assisted machining. Receptance Coupling Substructure Analysis (RCSA) technique for High Speed Machining (HSM) dynamics simulation has been expanded to derive the frequency response of the assembled system composed by the coupling of the thin walled part and the robot.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
