DecompGrind: A Decomposition Framework for Robotic Grinding via Cutting-Surface Planning and Contact-Force Adaptation
Robotic grinding is widely used for shaping workpieces in manufacturing, but it remains difficult to automate this process efficiently. In particular, efficiently grinding workpieces of different shapes and material hardness is challenging because removal resistance varies with local contact conditions. Moreover, it is difficult to achieve accurate estimation of removal resistance and analytical modeling of shape transition, and learning-based approaches often require large amounts of training data to cover diverse processing conditions. To address these challenges, we decompose robotic grinding into two components: removal-shape planning and contact-force adaptation. Based on this formulation, we propose DecompGrind, a framework that combines Global Cutting-Surface Planning (GCSP) and Local Contact-Force Adaptation (LCFA). GCSP determines removal shapes through geometric analysis of the current and target shapes without learning, while LCFA learns a contact-force adaptation policy using bilateral control-based imitation learning during the grinding of each removal shape. This decomposition restricts learning to local contact-force adaptation, allowing the policy to be learned from a small number of demonstrations, while handling global shape transition geometrically. Experiments using a robotic grinding system and 3D-printed workpieces demonstrate efficient robotic grinding of workpieces having different shapes and material hardness while maintaining safe levels of contact force.
