CMM/SCEE trials After delivery of CMM/SCEE to DTP2, the system integration phase was started in order to prepare the system for the actual test- ing. This testing was done in two phases starting from the factory floor and ending to the RH operated tests from the control room 1. The initial motion programs for the cassette operations were done by teaching, while having a continuous visual contact with the cassette. Good repetition accuracy (3 mm) of the CMM/SCEE guaranteed successful repetition of the motion programs. However, static 3D model could not support operations properly, because of poor absolute accuracy of CMM/SCEE. On the grounds of 3D model, it seemed that the cassette was colliding with Divertor Region Mock-up (DRM) structure although in practice everything was fine. It was very clear, that absolute accuracy of the sys- tem should be improved before the remote operations could be started. 2.2. Load compensation The effect of load to the CMM-SCEE kinematic chain (body, wheels, links and joints) was measured during the motion pro- grams. And it was realized that the positioning error at the tip of the cassette was in the worst case close to 80 mm. The measure- ment data was utilized for creating load compensation functions to improve the absolute accuracy. The solution is general for the RH maintenance tunnel operations, but for the toroidal operations the load compensation model is a look-up table based on the values of the CRO joint. The compensation approach is simple and well reasoned because of generality for CMM to support future CMM operations with other end effectors. The specific look-up tables are used only when operating with SCEE for performing a spe- cific toroidal trajectory in and out. The compensation functions helped to improve the performance of the equipment considerably. Thus, the positioning error at the furthest point of the cassette was reduced from almost 80 mm to about 5 mm 1. Theimplementationofloadcompensationintothecartesianref- erence values can be seen in Fig. 2. The solution is divided into two phases depending on whether the cassette is loaded to the HRO or not. Cartesian reference for ideal equipment (Fig. 2) is expressing the location of a coordinate system (Fig. 1) which coincides with the axis of the HRO joint. Thereby, HRO joint can be used only for changing the orientation of the cassette around the vertical axis and only the CRO joint can be used to reach a y-coordinate value of the reference data. For this reason, the load compensation functions during the toroidal motions depend on the CRO joint. If there is no load in HRO joint, an inverse kinematics solution can be used directly to solve corresponding values for the joint ref- erences. The solution is calculated using the DenavitHartenberg parameters, which include corrections based on the signature cal- ibration of the CMM/SCEE 1. When the load is attached to the HRO joint, the inverse kine- matics solution cannot be used directly because in this case the cartesian reference includes also the components that rep- resent the deflections of CMM/SCEE. When the effect of load is known, the correct value for CRO joint can be found either iteratively utilizing the inverse of the load compensation or by defining the least-square polynomial fit between the measured y- coordinate values and the corresponding CRO joint values. Both iterative solution and 7th order polynomial fit are working well in practice. After the CRO joint value is defined, the position compensation in the x-, y- and z-directions and the orientation compensation in the Roll- (R) and Pitch- (P) directions can be made with respect to the cartesian reference. The compensation movement in the Yaw (W) direction cannot be done because of lacking the ability to move in the yaw-direction with the CMM/SCEE. Fig. 2. Left: load compensation in cartesian space. Right: implementation of load effect to the joint data of the real device. 1960 S.

Improving teleoperator visualization accuracy Tilting the cassette in the yaw-direction can be visualized when additional joint is added to the 3D model of CMM/SCEE, (Fig. 2). joint has been placed between the hook plate and cassette. of that, the operator can see the effect of the cassette tilting, is 10 mm at the end of toroidal movement in the vertical To increase the visualization accuracy, when the cassette is con- the inner and outer rails of DRM, the pressure difference the Lift cylinder provides estimation about the load, as the of the cassette is gradually transferred from the hook plate the DRM rails or the other way around, (Fig. 2). Calculation of the deflections of the Divertor Cassette In the real operation environment, the shape of the Divertor Mock-up (DCM) is never equally represented by the 3D- model. The DCM deflects, when it is handled with the CMM and when it rests on the toroidal rails (Figs. 35). The deformations of the DCM were calculated using Ansys soft- and CATIA FEM-tools. The results of these two calculations compared. In conclusion, both FEM tools provide similar if the restraints are specified correctly. In the next phase, the FEM results were divided to components. horizontal and vertical deflections of the hook plate handling resting on the toroidal rails were compared to measurements had been done for real DCM in the DTP2 laboratory (Table 1). measurement device is Sokkia NET05 high precision 3D coor- measuring system (theodolite). Fig. 5. Vertical and horizontal deflections in respect to cassette structures. Comparison between the FEM results and the Sokkia measure- ments showed that the real DCM behaves as it was analyzed. 2.5. Visualization of the deflections of the Divertor Cassette Mock-up Design of the DCM has been made according to applicable design rules and standards of the machine design. As a result, the stresses are always below the proportional limit of the construction mate- rial and the behavior of material is linearly elastic. The initial tests in this study were conducted under the Hookes law assumption for linear deformations. Hence the results of the FEM analysis can be utilized for the visualization of the DCM deformations. Problem of loaded device shape not being reflected to the teleoperator view makes accurate controlofthesystemnearimpossible.Teleoperatorvisualizationby accounting deformations can be carried out in two different ways. The traditional method is to divide a body into pieces and to create the link mechanisms between the pieces 4. This approach requires a lot of analysis work. The position of the joints and the maximum joint values are the result of these analyses. Based on the analyses, it was recommended to divide DCM into three links, which were connected with two rotational joints, Fig. 6. Method proposed by this paper is to use the 3D morphing the process of gradual transformation between 3D bodies to describe the deformations of the body based on the FEM analysis results. The metamorphosis or the (3D) morphing of the 3D graphical objects, also known as shape interpolation, is the process of transform- ing one shape into another 2. This technique allows utilization of the FEM analysis results directly without laborious link-joint approximations. In addition, this method enables the use of sep- Table 1 FEM results compared to Sokkia measurements.

The body of the cassette is divided into three rigid links connected with two joints to approximate mechanical flexibilities. 7. Simplified example of 3 links deformed by 9 individual morph targets deformation results by utilizing FEM results for each morph per force applicable to the component for a given scenario Fig. 7). This provides a high degree of adaptation capabilities for a large variety of flexibilities in complex systems where sources of forces can affect each part of the system. For morphing the model, we have used the linear interpola- between the vertices in the non-deformed 3D model and the FEM model. A more advanced morphing algorithm is the field interpolation 3 if the accuracy of the linear interpola- is not sufficient for the given application. For visualizing the deformations to the teleoperator, Dassault Virtools 5.0 was used (Fig. 8). The virtual environment is by directly utilizing ITER CATIA models in conjunction with FEM models that are utilized for creating morph targets. The benefits of the proposed method are the following: Applicationofthefullyflexiblemeshmorphingbetweenthecom- ponents unloaded neutral states and the deformed states for a given maximum force per morph target thus directly utilizing the FEM results, Fig. 4. Easier reuse of the existing deformation data obtained by the offline and online analysis of real systems. More accurate representation of each section of the complex sys- tem components and full control over the continuum possible deformation points, instead of rough estimations gained trough joint-link approximation. Possibility to combine multiple deformations separated by indi- vidual forces in complex system. Fig. 8. Example of DCM morph targets within virtual environment. 2.6. Controlling of the 3D model deformations Controlling the 3D model deformations means that the defor- mations in the virtual environment have to follow the actual deformations. The deformation information can be determined based on the previously measured deformations for a given operation state or by using the hydraulic system pressures to estimate the force, hence utilizing existing sensor informa- tion. In the case of robot operations, a more accurate solution can be achieved by employing strain gauges to measure the actual defor- mations of the robot links. In the laboratory tests, the strain gauges will be installed to the DCM. The advantage of the strain gauges includes: Complementarity to the morph target method, where for each force one can have an individual morph target controlled by a dedicated strain gauge. Ability to measure the exact deformations immediately, not relying on the previously measured static deformation data or hydraulic pressures that may not be available for all force direc- tions. 3. Future work The continuation regarding the fully flexible 3D virtual proto- typing of the DTP2 robot components will be as follows. Initially, the DCM flexibility studies will focus on solving the flexibility prob- lems of subsystems. Later, the studies will cover the whole CMM robot structures and will result in appropriate joint structures of the rigid objects to reflect the deformed states of the preceding objects in the link chain. More sophisticated morphing methods such as the 3D strain fields in replacement of the linear interpolation will be applied. This will be combined with the flexible 3D virtual prototype to be controlled by the strain gauges measurements of the real DCM deformations. We will further analyze the combined and separate effect of the flexibility of the robot links and the joints. This will help to create a more precise FEM models. Finally, the influence of the link flexibilities on the dynamic response of the system will be explored. 1962 S.
