    Frictional forces inside the joints of mobile robots hurt robot operation's stability and positioning accuracy. Therefore, establishing a suitable friction force compensation model has been a hot research topic in robotics. To explore the robot joint friction compensation model, three friction compensation models: linear, nonlinear, and neural network models, are developed in this paper. Based on the deep learning algorithm for three models at low speed, high speed, acceleration, and uniform speed training test, respectively results have been obtained. The test results show that the best friction compensation effect comes from combining neural network models in acceleration and a consistent speed state way. The friction compensation model trained this way yielded superior results to the other combinations tested. Finally, using the method, a friction compensation model trained by adding a neural network to the feedforward control torque was tested on a four-wheeled mobile robot platform. The test results show that the relative error of the torque caused by the friction of each joint is reduced by 15%-75% in 8 groups of tests, which indicates that our friction compensation method has a positive effect on improving the accuracy of the joint torque

    Roundness error evaluation of cold embossed hole based on profile measurement technique

    Get PDF
    Roundness is one of the main features to ensure the perfect mating of assembled parts. A coordinate measurement machine is commonly utilized for measurement, but the use of this machine is limited because of the small size and characteristics of the hole. This study aims to evaluate the quality of an AA6061 cold embossing hole. A simple approach based on profile deviation is proposed to evaluate the roundness of the hole. The profile is obtained with the use of InfiniteFocus Alicona system, a commercially available 3D surface measurement technique. Several specimens with various depths and diameters are prepared for measurement. Results are validated with the commercial Mitutoyo roundtest machine

    Effect of annealing, thickness ratio and bend angle on springback of AA6061-T6 with nonuniform thickness section

    Get PDF
    Non-uniform thickness section section is considered one of the most effective approaches to reduce automotive part weight. Reduction in term of mass and size result in less fuel consumption and greenhouse gases. Thickness is the most significant parameter to formability, therefore forming a section with non-uniform thickness becomes a great challenge. Improper process and incorrect decision may lead to severe defect and one of the main concerns is the springback. This study will focus on springback behaviour of non-uniform thickness AA6061 strip with complex profile using Taguchi Method. Profile projector (PC 3000) is used to measure the spring back and two-line technique is applied to measure angles (after loading) between two lines. Three parameters (i.e. annealing temperature, thickness ratio and bend angle) are studied, and results determine that the most significant parameter is bend angle, followed by thickness ratio, and then by the annealing temperature of the specimen during bending process

    Quality evaluation of cold embossed hole based on profile measurement technique

    Get PDF
    The main objective of this study is to assess the quality of the cold forging hole by focusing the roundness of the hole. In this study, a cold forging process of blind hole of Aluminum Alloy AA6061 experimental rig was developed. In the experiment, two major design parameters i.e. the depth of embossing and diameter of the punch were studied and their influence to the roundness was measured based on the profile obtained from the surface measurement technique. The results will be validated using commercial roundtest machine
