Multi-criteria Robot Selection Problem for an Automated Single-Sided Lapping System
PublicationFlat lapping is a crucial process in a number of precision manufacturing technologies. Its aim is to achieve extremely high flatness of the workpiece. Single-sided lapping machines have usually standard kinematic systems and are used in conjunction with conditioning rings, which are set properly be-tween the center and the periphery of the lapping plate. In this paper, instead of conventional single-side lapping machine, an automated...
