The materials of ship screw propeller are commonly the manganese bronze. The seawater corrosion and cavitation of the screw propeller reduce tire propulsive performance of ship. In screw manufactory, tire corrosion rust of tire screw propeller is removed by a hand grinding. The grinding work makes the dust of the heavy metals from the manganese bronze. The dust makes indoor working environment poor. A friendly-environmental and automatic corrosion removing apparatus was developed for the improvement of screw processing and working environment. The corrosion rust of a screw propeller was remarkably removed by using apparatus. And the screw surface roughness was improved by a blasting effect of the apparatus performance test. Anode polarization curves on jour processing conditions, that is to say, grinding, blasting, wire-brushing, fine sand papering, were confirmed by a potentiostat. Especially, two kinds of medias, alumina and emery, were used in the blasting processing. Then, investigated tire cavitation erosion of specimen. This result proved that tire blasting work has considerably improved the corrosion resistance of a screw propeller.

This paper develops a robot arm for propeller blade grinding. The grinding work requires a high stiffness robot arm to reduce deformation and vibration which are generated during machining operation. Conventional articulated robots have serial connecting links from the base to the gripper. Thus, they have very weak structure to the stiffness for grinding operation. Stewart Platform is a typical parallel robotic mechanism with very high stiffness but it has small work space and large installation space. This research proposes a new grinding robot arm by combining parallel mechanism with serial mechanism. Therefore, the robot has large range of work space as well as high stiffness. This paper introduces the automatic system for propeller grinding utilizing the robot and the design of proposed robot arm.

The materials used in a ship screw propeller are commonly made with brass. The seawater corrosion and seawater cavitation of the screw propeller reduces the propulsive performance of the ship. In screw manufacturing, the corrosion rust of the screw propeller is removed through a hand grinding method. The grinding process produces dust of the heavy metals from the brass. The dust creates a poor working environment that is harmful to the health of the workers. An automatic corrosionrust removing apparatus, using a blasting method, was developed for the improvement of screw polishing conditions and its working environment. The performance of this apparatus was investigated by surface roughness, weight loss rate, hardness, electrochemical corrosion resistance, and cavitation erosion, after removing of the corrosion rust under various blasting conditions. Two medias of alumina and emery were used in this experiment. The surface roughness and hardness of the screw were improved by this apparatus. The electrochemical corrosion potential (Ecorr) and current density (Icorr) were measured by the dynamic polarization method, using a potentiostat,under the conditions of surface polishing with grinding, blasting, wire brushing, and fine sand papering. The test results prove that the new corrosion rust-removing apparatus improves the surface performance of a screw propeller.

This paper presents the robot program for propeller grinding. A robot manipulator is constructed by combining a parallel and a serial mechanism to increase high sitffness as well as workspace. The robot program involves inverse/direct kinematics, velocity mapping, Jacobian, and etc. They are cerived in efficient formulations and implemented in a real time control. A velocity control is used to measure the hight of a propeller blade with a touch probe and a position control is performed to grind the surface of the blade.

본 연구는 선박용 프로펠러 주물 생산을 위한 후란주형 설계 및 가공 시스템을 개발하였다. 대형 선박용 프로펠러는 시멘트 혹은 후란 소재로 상형 및 하형 주형을 제작하고, 주조를 통해 소재를 제작한다. 이후 주물소재에 대한 일련의 기계가공 및 사상을 거쳐 제품을 완성한다. 기존 후란주형은 수작업을 통한 조형을 통해 제작되므로 세부 공정이 많아질뿐더러, 상당한 소재여유가 존재함으로써 기계가공 및 사상 공수가 증가한다. 이에 따라 후란주형의 제작 정밀도를 향상하고, 생산과정의 표준화 및 생산성 향상을 위해 설계 소프트웨어 및 6축 로봇을 이용한 후란주형 제작 시스템을 개발하였다.
