Off-line programming of robot on laser cleaning for large complex components

Abstract

Laser cleaning path planning is great for significance to the cleaning effect of component surface. In view of the fact that the cleaning head must keep a fixed focal length with the workpiece surface and keep a vertical angle with the workpiece surface at all times in the laser cleaning process, this paper introduces the numerical model of large components into the general off-line programming software, and according to the relevant laser cleaning process and setting specific parameters in the software, obtains the automatically planned machine. The human trajectory program is introduced into the robot to realize the surface cleaning of large and complex components. Finally, according to the actual cleaning effect in the field, the laser focal length deviation is controlled within ± 2mm, and the application of off-line programming of industrial robots in complex surfaces is summarized and prospected.
