Vertically articulated industrial robots are suitable for machining purposes owing to their advantages over multi-axis machine tools, such as larger workspace, easier installation, and lower cost. However, the rigidity and positioning accuracy of industrial robots are inferior to those of machine tools, which renders it difficult to maintain the robot posture required for machining operations. This study focuses on improving the accuracy of robot machining based on posture optimization by exploiting the kinematic redundancy of a six-axis vertically articulated robot. To decrease positioning errors caused by static and dynamic external forces during machining, this study proposes a path generation method for a redundant joint that simultaneously considers the static and dynamic rigidity of the machining robot. The relationships between the static and dynamic mechanical characteristics of the machining robot and the redundant angle are illustrated using two maps: a static stiffness map and a natural frequency map. Using these two maps in the proposed path generation method, the redundant angle that can be selected for the robot posture with arbitrary mechanical characteristics is selected. Experimental results confirm that the proposed path generation method can control the priority of reducing static positioning error and vibration amplitude by changing the weight coefficients. In addition, the proposed method can improve positioning accuracy compared with conventional trajectory generation methods for redundant robots.

The demands for machining by industrial robots have been increasing owing to their low installation cost and high flexibility. A novel trajectory generation algorithm for high-speed and high-accuracy machining by industrial robots is proposed in this paper. Linear interpolation in the workspace and smooth trajectory generation at the corners are important in industrial machining robots. Because industrial robots are composed of rotational joints, the joint space has a nonlinear relationship with the workspace. Therefore, linear interpolation in the joint space, which has been widely used in conventional machine tools, does not guarantee linear interpolation in the actual machining workspace. This results in the degradation of the machining surface. The proposed trajectory generation algorithm based on the decoupled approach can achieve linear interpolation in the workspace by separating the position commands into Cartesian coordinates and the orientation commands into spherical coordinates. In addition, a novel corner smoothing method that generates a smooth and continuous trajectory from discrete commands is proposed in this paper. The proposed kinematic local corner smoothing generates a smooth trajectory by using a 3-segmented constant jerk profile at the corners in the joint space. The sharp corners can thereby be replaced by smooth curves. The resulting cornering error is controlled by varying the cornering duration. The simulation results demonstrate the effectiveness of the proposed kinematic smoothing algorithm in achieving linear tool motion in straight sections and in generating smooth trajectories at corner sections within the user-defined tolerance.

This paper presents a novel trajectory generation technique, which has the capability to avoid excitation of inertial vibrations in precision manufacturing equipment. A major source of vibrations in fast moving precision manufacturing equipment is the inertial vibrations that are excited due to frequency content of reference motion commands (trajectory). In general practice, those inertial vibrations are avoided within the controller architecture through notch filtering. Or, input-shaping methods are utilized to attenuate critical frequency components of the reference trajectory so that lightly damped vibration modes of the structure are not excited. Instead of employing those postfiltering techniques that add unwanted delay to the coordinated motion, this paper introduces a direct trajectory generation technique with a shaped frequency content to suppress inertial vibrations. The time-stamped acceleration profile of the feed profile is defined as a ninth-order polynomial. Polynomial coefficients are solved through an optimization procedure where the objective function penalizes total frequency energy in a desired frequency band. As a result, generated reference acceleration commands do not contain any excitation near the vibration modes of the system and hence excitation of inertial vibrations is avoided. The proposed frequency optimal feed profiling (FOFP) system can be utilized to generate high-speed accurate point-to-point (P2P) trajectories as well as to interpolate continuous multi-axis coordinated motion. Effectiveness of the proposed FOFP scheme is evaluated through rigorous comparison against the well-known minimum jerk feed profiles (MJFP) technique through simulations and experiments. Experimental validation is performed on an in-house controlled machine tool with flexible structure.

The magnetic field of the human brain is extremely weak, and it is mostly measured and monitored in the magnetoencephalography method using superconducting quantum interference devices. In this study, in order to measure the weak magnetic field of the brain, we constructed a Magneto-Impedance sensor (MI sensor) system that can cancel out the background noise without any magnetic shield. Based on our previous studies of brain wave measurements, we used two MI sensors in this system for monitoring both cerebral hemispheres. In this study, we recorded and compared the auditory evoked field signals of the subject, including the N100 (or N1) and the P300 (or P3) brain waves. The results suggest that the MI sensor can be applied to brain activity measurement.
