A Rapid Planning Method for the Freeform Surface Spraying Based on CAD Model

Article Preview

Abstract:

In order to solve the freeform surface spray planning problem in spray industrial, this article proposed a model of the spray gun and description of the spray procedure. Then, the article presents a rapid planning method based on CAD model of the workpiece. With this method, the spray trajectory is constructed by the path points normal vector and S-shaped path using CAD model. In ABB's RobotStudio simulation software, a spray experiment is carried out. The simulation results show that this method can effectively simplify the offline planning process and save processing time.
