The design & simulation of spatial path planning for the robotic plasma spraying

With the development of modern industry, more and more industrial robots have been used in the industrial production, especially in the area of spraying, such as the automobile industry, furniture, ceramics etc. In the plasma spray rapid metal tooling, the metal film with high hardness is formed on the sprayed prototype by robotic plasma spraying. The robotic path planning of plasma spray is simulated on the virtual platform in this paper. Basing on the study of 2D spraying graphics arithmetic, the robotic path in two-dimensional space can be generated automatically and displayed on the virtual platform.
