Abstract

Robotic abrasive finishing inclusive of both high grinding efficiency in material removal and excellent polishing quality in material surface is a new challenging technology to meet demands for today’s and future front-end technology products.
With the development of this technology, huge application areas are opened up especially in precision free-form component manufacturing,
which is the key challenge in today’s aerospace, energy and biomedicine industries. In the ongoing project, robotic grinding and polishing
process is being developed to obtain simultaneous achievement of grinding and polishing process with efficiently high surface quality. For the
purpose, the Centre for Precision Technologies facilities are going to be used to establish a new system regarding experimental needs,
process monitoring surface metrology equipments
