2. Product Overview
The Compliant Deburring Blade (CDB) is especially suited for removal of parting lines and ash from parts. The
CDB’s Auto Tool Changer (ATC) allows it to be used in a wide variety of applications without human interaction.
The CDB’s pneumatically controlled, articulated compliance allows the blade to follow the part prole and
compensate for surface irregularities while maintaining a constant force. As a result, high feed rates with uniform
quality in any orientation is achievable. The tool requires no oil.
When the customer supplies air pressure to the compliance air tting, the tool activates a compliance feature (or
complies) for consistent deburring on irregular part patterns. The CDB utilizes standard industrial blades that allow
for adaptation to changing assembly lines and part requirements.
Axially mount the CDB tool to the customer robot. The customer can mount the tapered ange of the CDB to
an interface plate that adapts to a robot. The customer can purchase custom interface plates fromATI (refer to
Section 3.5—Axial Mounting Installation and Section 9—Drawings for more information)
The CDB can be manually locked to single axis compliance using the single axis lockout (refer to Section 4.6—
Locking and Unlocking Single Axis Compliance for more information)

3.7 Pneumatics
Connect the air lines as shown in Section 9.3—9630‑50‑CDB‑PNEUMATIC.
WARNING: All pneumatic ttings and tubing must be capable of withstanding the
repetitive motions of the application without failing. The routing of pneumatic lines must
minimize the possibility of over stressing, pullout, or kinking the lines. Failure to do
so can cause some critical pneumatic lines not to function properly and may result in
damage to equipment.
The air supply should be dry, ltered, and free of oil. A coalescing lter (ATI Part # 9150‑FFR‑90 or
equivalent) with elements rated for 5 micron or better is required.
A self‑relieving regulator (ATI Part # 9150‑P16‑B‑G, or equivalent) is used to supply the compliance
(centering) mechanism. This pressure corresponds to the side force on the blade. Because very little air ow
is required for the compliance mechanism, a smaller valve can be used (consult the valve and regulator
supplier’s literature when selecting these components).
Solenoid valves are actuated from the robot or program logic controller by means of a digital output signal.
The lock/unlock for the tool stand must a regulated air supply pressure of 4.1 bar [60 psi].
Use exible plastic tubing for the air supply.
The compliance force, air supply pressure regulator should have a 1‑4.1 bar [15–60 psi] range. When testing
for the proper contact force, start with about 1 bar [15 psi] of pressure and increase the pressure slowly until
the desired cut is achieved.

4. Operation
For assistance in programming, starting up, and complete a robotic deburring cell containing a CDB tool refer
to the following section. The system integrator should be familiar with the task of deburring and have extensive
knowledge about automation applications that incorporate robots.
DANGER: Never use the CDB tool for purposes other than robotic deburring. If used in any
other way, serious injury or damage to equipment may occur.
WARNING: All personnel, who are involved in operation of the CDB tool, should have a
thorough understanding of the operating procedures. Failure to follow these procedures or
neglecting safety precautions can create hazardous situations that may injure personnel or
damage the deburring installation and the CDB tool.
WARNING: Never operate the CDB without wearing eye protection. Flying debris can cause
injury. Always use eye protection while working in the proximity of the CDB tool.
CAUTION: Do not use spare parts other than original ATI spare parts except for
consumables. Use of spare parts not supplied by ATI can damage equipment and void the
warranty. Always use original ATI serviceable parts.
CAUTION: Never be present near the CDB tool while it is in operation. Flying debris can
cause injury. If it is necessary to approach the CDB tool while in motion, stand behind
appropriate protective windows. Provide a barrier to prohibit people from approaching the
CDB tool.
CAUTION: Never use the CDB tool for any purposes, or in any ways, not explicitly described
in this document. Using the CDB tool without fully understanding the installation and operating
procedures may cause injury to personnel or damage to equipment.
4.1 Working Environment
The CDB tool should only be used in conjunction with a robot in a secured work cell/chamber.
The work cell must be secured by barriers to prohibit personnel from entering the cell. A lockable door
should be included as a part of the barrier in order to facilitate access to the cell for authorized personnel
only. The barrier could consist partly or fully of clear guards or similar to facilitate observation of the
deburring operations.
During system or CDB tool maintenance, make sure the CDB tool and robot are stopped before entering the
robot cell. When installing and testing, never be present in the cell when the CDB tool is in operation.

4.2 Normal Operation
The following sections describe the normal operating conditions for CDB.
4.2.1 Air Quality
The air supply should be dry, ltered, and free of oil. A coalescing lter with elements rated for 5
micron or better is required. The air must be supplied to the ATC collet at between 1‑4.1 bar (15‑60
psi) and to the ATC tool stand at 4.1 bar (60 psi).
Particulate can block airow or impede compliance motion. If deburring tools do not receive proper
air pressure, tool may not re‑center properly. Any water in the system damages the housing and
blades.
4.2.2 No Lubrication
The compliance device cannot have any oil in the air supply. Oil can clog compliance device and
limit compliance range.
4.2.3 Blade Selection and Maintenance
CDB accepts industry standard, off the shelf hand deburring blades.As blades near end of their
service life, surface nish may degrade, necessitating change of blade.
Radially loaded blades and scraper tools as well as axially loaded countersink tools are acceptable.
Always ensure the ball detent and locking divots on tool holder shaft are aligned radially and that the
ball is securely seated in the divot. Unsecured blades can cause the shaft to slip, creating hazards for
operators and quality.
4.2.4 Deburring Tool Approach Path Should be Slow and at an Angle
The deburring tool should approach the workpiece slowly and at an angle, with ample room for
pivoting blade to reorient before beginning each pass.
When beginning a deburring pass, try to minimize the initial impact on the work piece by slowly
approaching the tool at an angle while maintaining a parallel path with the surface.
If the tool quickly approaches perpendicularly to the workpiece, the result is gouging and
premature wear of the tool bearings and bur. Additionally, collisions could result and create a
hazardous situation for both personnel and equipment.
When using pivoting blades, approach from a distance and angle for the blade to catch on the
workpiece edge. Program the robot accurately when the contact holes are geometrically equal to or
less than the tool’s pivot radius.
Note: some tools are directionally dependent. Before use, always verify the intended direction of
blade operation.
4.2.5 Single Axis Loading
While using single axis lockout, do not apply radial loads that are perpendicular to the axis of pivot.
Always keep the tool pivoting perpendicular to the deburring surface. Loading the tool along the pivot
axis will damage the pivot pins and cause premature failure.
4.2.6 Program the Robot to Incorporate 50% Compliance Travel of the Tool
Program the robot to have the tool’s compliance at 50% travel when on the nominal path.
As the part’s edge deviates from the perfect path, the bur can use compliance to follow along high
and low spots without losing contact or hitting the positive stop and gouging. Do not “bottom out” the
compliance and hit the positive stop.
Repeated impacts on the positive stop create slop in the compliance and reduce recentering
repeatability.

4.3 Programming for ATC Tool Stand
The tool stand component of the ATC system uses divots in the tool holder shaft for securing the tool to the
tool stand. Due to this the tool holder has to extend further out of the ATC collet. The robot program must
accommodate for this clearance between the tool stand and collet.
When adding additional ATC tool stands, a minimum of 25 mm (1”) is required between tool stands. Refer
to Section 9—Drawings
Figure 4.1—Programming
ATC Collet

Tool Holder
NOTICE: The customer must have familiarity with how to actuate each ATC station in order
to manually place each blade. If plant regulations require all pressurized air is released prior
to operator’s entrance into a robot cell, theATC station can be used in conjunction with a
swivel table to rotate ATC stations out of the cell. This ensures that the operators remain in a
safe environment while the station is energized. If ATCs are maintained within the robot cell,
operators must be able to control them through a 4‑way valve or solenoid, so that the ATC can
actuate open, the blade(s) can be replaced, and the ATC is actuated closed. Air lines will need
to have check valves installed to ensure the ATC station remains locked, if customer supplied air
pressure is lost.
1. Always use personal protective equipment (PPE) when in robot cell.
2. Use teach mode on the robot pendant to safely manipulate the robot while inside the cell.
3. Manually actuate air to unlock the ATC station.
4. Manually place the blade holder inside the ATC collet and hold it at the desired depth such that there are
at least 3 divots available for the ATC tool stand to grip. This blade holder height should allow the user
to access and deburr all necessary features.
5. Lock the CDB ATC tool changer.
6. Manually unlock air at ATC station 1 tool stand.
7. Place additional cutting media holder in ATC tool stand.
8. Manually actuate air to lock the ATC station.
9. Repeat steps 5‑8 for each additional ATC station in robot cell, maintaining one empty ATC tool stand
station for the blade holder currently in use by the robot.
10. Exit the robot cell.
11. Follow standard power up procedure.

5.2 Lubrication
Lubrication systems are not to be used. The CDB tool must be supplied with clean, dry, ltered air. See
Section 3.7—Pneumatics for details on air supply and quality.
5.3 Blade Inspection
