Abstract
This paper deals with the automatic deburring of castings. The deburring works that are performed in the final process of production area are still done by skilled workers since the automation of deburring works is difficult. The study aims at developing the automatic deburring system by making use of CAD data of workpiece and industrial robot. The tool selection system selects a tool suitable for specific burr of castings among a variety of tools. The CAM system decides how to deburr with the selected tool with regard to the tool imformation file which indicates the shape and condition and the tool path data is automatically generated.
