A novel mechatronics design of an electrochemical mechanical end-effector for robotic-based surface polishing (2015)
Conference Proceeding

This paper presents a novel design of an end-effector and a process for automatic electrochemical mechanical polishing of conductive materials. The proposed end-effector employs three different actions, electrical, chemical and mechanical in a synerg...
