In this paper a force-control model is developed for edge deburring with filamentary brushes. The model is based upon experimentally obtained “master curves,” that is, material removal data that corresponds to the actual machining performance of the brush/workpart system during the incremental burr removal process. This information is used in conjunction with the on-line brush machining force to compute the brush feed rate that ensures complete removal of the edge burr. Computer simulated results are reported for the removal of an edge burr having unknown variable height. The results indicate that the present force-control model can provide a straight forward approach for computing brush feed rates that lead to complete removal of edge burrs, and suggests that implementation can be carried out using a force sensor and a simple control strategy.
