In this paper, a deburring tool with 3-axis compliance is presented for deburring using a robot manipulator. Compliance is provided with beam structures instead of pneumatic pressure, which enables integrated 3-axis force sensing and variable stiffness. Two radial compliances were achieved using 4-PSS (Prismatic-Spherical-Spherical) legs, with P joints composed of cantilever beams. The one axial compliance was configured with two ball bushings and a linear spring. Strain gauges were attached to cantilever beams and a load cell was mounted between the linear spring and the universal joint to perform force sensing. The stability of vibrations and force sensing were verified through deburring experiments using the proposed deburring tool. Additionally, experiments on automatic offset for applying a constant force during deburring were conducted and results were validated by comparing the workpiece before and after the deburring process.
