Aditivne tehnologije se zelo hitro uveljavljajo v svetu industrije. Za pretvorbo 3D modela v točno določeno programsko obliko zahteva različne postprocesorje, ki so navadno dostopne samo z zakupljeno licenco. V nalogi smo se osredotočili na razvoj postprocesorja za oblikovno obločno navarjanje z žico s pomočjo ABB robotskega manipulatorja. Razvojni proces postprocesorja vključuje razčlenitev G-kode, transformacijo določenih vhodnih parametrov ter nato implementacijo v pravilno obliko programskega jezika za programiranje robotskega krmilnika ABB, RAPID. V eksperimentalnem delu smo nastavili vse parametre vhodne kode jo analizirali in s pomočjo postprocesorja na koncu testirali generirano izhodno kodo ter končne rezultate primerjali s podatki v programu. Ugotovili smo, da razviti postprocesor omogoča uspešno pretvorbo g-kode v programski jezik Rapid ter s tem uspešno oblikovno obločno navarjanje.

• Title: Development of a postprocessor for robotic wire arc additive manufacturing

Abstract

Additive technologies are gaining on the importance very quickly in the world of industry. To convert a 3D model into a specific software format, it requires various post-processors, which are usually only available with a leased license. This thesis focused on the development of a post-processor for wire arc additive manufacturing using ABB robotic manipulator. The post-processor development process involves parsing the G-code, transforming certain input parameters, and then implementing it into the correct form of the ABB robot controller programming language, RAPID. We experimentally set all the parameters of the input code, analyse it and, with the help of the post-processor, finally test the generated output code and compare the results with the data in the program. We found that the developed post-processor allows successful conversion of g-code into the Rapid programming language and thus successful wire arc additive manufacturing.
