Additional information

This output discusses the control of CNC machine tools and robots which is usually achieved by encoders mounted on motors or moving elements and therefore the feedback source is remote from the cutting tool or the end effector. The work is intended to develop a method for a low cost but sufficiently accurate way of controlling machine/robot movement using acoustic feedback. The paper describes a project using a CMM which has been able to successfully determine positional movement within acceptable tolerances. This work is part supported by Renishaw and is being fed into the outputs from the EPSRC project (EP/I033424/1)
