Despite this, the growing demand for flexible machining solutions and advances in near-net-shape component manufacture (e.g. additive manufacturing) present new opportunities for robots. This study investigates a self-built robot designed for machining, featuring hybrid drives to enhance its dynamic. The experimental setup assesses the robot’s static and dynamic stiffness, concluding with a performance evaluation on a steel test specimen.enCNC machiningRobot machiningIndustrial robotHybrid drives500 Naturwissenschaften und Mathematikconference paper
