Abstract

Pressure disturbances in a pneumatic robotic force control device—including force overshoot upon initial contact between a robotic tool and a workpiece—are mitigated by increasing the mass air flow in or out of a pneumatic chamber via one or more force overshoot mitigation air passages formed in the robotic force control device. The force overshoot mitigation air passages may connect the two chambers in air flow relationship, or may allow air flow from a chamber to the exterior. The force overshoot mitigation air passages may have a static or variable effective area. The optimal area may be calculated based on measured flow rates and pressures during typical use cases.
