A Novel Engraving Cutting Tool System for Parallel Mechanism

A novel parallel-mechanism-oriented cutting tool system for engraving is designed and implemented.The whole system mainly consists of such subsystems as principal axis and cutting tool,workpiece platform,multi-sensor and electric control,etc.Chinese character engraving and realtime force/moment information monitoring are implemented by integrating the proposed cutting tool with parallel robot.Experimental results illustrate the feasibility and validity of the cutting tool system.
