Purpose The application of thermal barrier coatings (TBCs) allows aero-engine blades to operate at higher temperatures with higher efficiency. The preparation of the TBCs increases the surface roughness of the blade, which impacts the thermal cycle life and thermal insulation performance of the...

Purpose During the process of the robotic grinding and polishing operations on aero-engine blades, the key problem of calibration error lies in fixture error and uneven margin. To solve this problem, this paper aims to propose a novel method to achieve rapid online calibration of the workpiece...
