Zusammenfassung: | This article presents an online three-axis non-uniform rational B-splines preprocessing and feedrate scheduling method with chord error, axial velocity, acceleration, and jerk limitations. A preprocessing method is proposed to accurately locate the critical points by reducing pre-interpolation feedrate in feedrate limit violation regions. In the preprocessing stage, the non-uniform rational B-splines curve is subdivided into segments by the critical points and the corresponding feedrate constraints are obtained. A sliding look-ahead window-based feedrate scheduling method is proposed to generate smooth feedrate profile for the buffered non-uniform rational B-splines segments. The feedrate profile corresponding to each non-uniform rational B-splines block is constructed according to the block length and the given limits of acceleration and jerk. The feedrate modification method for non-schedulable short blocks is also described which aimed at avoiding feedrate discontinuity at the junction of two non-uniform rational B-splines blocks. With the proposed method, a successful feedrate profile could be generated with sufficient look-ahead trajectory length in the buffer, which enables that the preprocessing and feedrate planning to be performed progressively online. Simulation and experimental tests with different non-uniform rational B-splines curves are carried out to validate the feasibility and advantages of the proposed method. The results show that the proposed method is capable of making a balance between the machining efficiency, machining precision, and computational complexity. |
