Research on Kinematic Calibration and Trajectory Tracking of the Dual-Robot Collaborative Grinding and Polishing System

This study proposes a systematic solution to the motion planning challenges in dual-robot collaborative grinding and polishing systems, with its effectiveness experimentally validated. By establishing a dual-robot pose constraint model, this study innovatively integrates the "handshake" method with the seven-point calibration approach, achieving enhanced spatial mapping accuracy between the base coordinate system and tool coordinate system. Based on the modified Denavit-Hartenberg (DH) method, this study establishes kinematic modeling for EPSON C4-A901S robots on the MATLAB platform. By integrating calibration parameters, a dual-robot collaborative grinding model is constructed, with its reliability thoroughly verified through comprehensive simulations. An experimental platform integrating dual EPSON C4-series robots with grinding devices, clamping fixtures, and drive systems was established. The average error below 8 mm from 10 repeated experiments fully validates the accuracy and practical applicability of the integrated calibration method.

Abstract

This study proposes a systematic solution to the motion planning challenges in dual-robot collaborative grinding and polishing systems, with its effectiveness experimentally validated. By establishing a dual-robot pose constraint model, this study innovatively integrates the "handshake" method with the seven-point calibration approach, achieving enhanced spatial mapping accuracy between the base coordinate system and tool coordinate system. Based on the modified Denavit-Hartenberg (DH) method, this study establishes kinematic modeling for EPSON C4-A901S robots on the MATLAB platform. By integrating calibration parameters, a dual-robot collaborative grinding model is constructed, with its reliability thoroughly verified through comprehensive simulations. An experimental platform integrating dual EPSON C4-series robots with grinding devices, clamping fixtures, and drive systems was established. The average error below 8 mm from 10 repeated experiments fully validates the accuracy and practical applicability of the integrated calibration method.
