Abstract

A method of manufacturing for finishing ceramic core flash. Locating a first hole on a ceramic core by a laser sensor on a robot. Probing for a center of the first hole by a force-torque sensor on the robot. Scanning for an axial position of a second hole on the ceramic core. Scanning for a third hole on the ceramic core. Probing for a center of the third hole. Determining axial and radial scale factors based on the first hole location and the third hole location. Uploading the axial and radial scale factors to the robot Multiplying the X component position by the axial scale factor and the Z component position by the radial scale factor in an array format. Cutting a designated scaled location along the ceramic core to remove flash. Repeating process for additional scaled locations along the ceramic core.
