Water spraying work to prevent the dust from scattering during building dismantling operation has usually been done manually. Since it is very risky and often causes fatal accidents due to unexpected collapse, a few countries have adopted mechanical water spaying machines. However, these machines are still operated by human laborer, specifically in orienting the spraying direction, which induces low dust suppression efficiency. In this research, an automated fine dust tracking system was suggested to identify and track the dust generating position accurately. A GPS is installed on the secured body of the excavator which contains a crusher as an end-effector for building dismantlement. Assuming the position of the crusher is the dust generating spot, a forward kinematics analysis is performed to identify the crusher position from the body origin on which the GPS sensor is placed. With another GPS on the water-spraying robot, its relative position to the dust generating spot and its heading angle for tracking can be calculated consequently. Tracking experiments were conducted with a miniature excavator and a reduced size water spraying robot. The results showed a sufficient tracking performance enough to be applied to the water spaying machines.

Various types of 5-axis machine tools have been developed. In the case of a machine tool composed from linear motion, the kinematic equation can be obtained easily and intuitively. However, machine tools with more than four axes, including rotating axes, have generally performed kinematic and dynamic performance analyses using mathematical methods. In this paper, the kinematic equations of various types of machine tools are obtained, based on the Homogeneous Transformation Matrix method. The loop stiffness was then calculated as a mathematical model. A mathematical model of loop stiffness was verified by using a method to calculate the loop stiffness of a commercial program. The results of the mathematical model showed less than a 1% error with the commercial program, and this could show the validity of the mathematical model. Then, this model was applied to two types of machine tools. The minimum loop stiffness of both models is compared.
