Abstract

The features of conducting the finishing operations for processing complicated surfaces by the example of processing the blade airfoil of gas turbine engines are presented: their automation requires application of intelligent control systems. We present the requirements for industrial robot control systems applied in the finishing operations for treatment complicated surfaces and propose the structure and composition of an expert system for a rule-based robotic complex. A description and modeling of a simulation model are presented, including a dynamic model of an industrial robot and the technology used to analyze the technological process and to select the processing program. We present the results of modeling the technological system and the procedure for selecting the program for the KR 10 R1420 industrial robot.
