To promote operational intelligence, improve surface quality, and reduce manpower dependence, a novel high-bandwidth end-effector with active force control for robotic polishing was proposed. Using this end-effector as a mini robot, a macro-mini robot for polishing processing was constructed, in which the macro robot provides posture control during polishing operations, whereas the mini-robot provides constant force control. By minimizing the inertia along the spindle in this configuration, the end-effector obtain…
