Abstract

Develops a geometric adaptive control system for a bar turning system operating in a dry cutting environment. The diameter of the workpiece is directly measured by a noncontact laser sensor and a simple beam vibration model is used to approximate the workpiece deflection which is the primary source of errors. A PID control law is designed in conjunction with a Kalman filter, used to compensate for the measurement delay. Simulation results and initial experimental results are promising
