Abstract
Robot calibration is to enhance absolute positioning accuracy within robotic task space. Traditional method is to build the geometric error model and identify the deviation of kinematic parameters. In this paper, a hybrid analytical and data-driven non-geometric error modeling approach is proposed after the geometric error is compensated. It is intended to satisfy higher accuracy requirements when the heavy-duty Cartesian robot performs metal finishing tasks under different load conditions. Analytical and deterministic Beam Deformation model is built firstly to remove a large portion of the non-geometric error. By this means, datadriven Gaussian Process Regression model can achieve better prediction results due to the collected residual error data is closer to Gaussian distribution. The experimental result of platform tests demonstrates the effectiveness and robustness of the proposed method.
