Short summary
Switch rails are essential to railway turnouts, but machining burrs can cause cracks, shorten service life, and affect safety. This study developed a robot-assisted milling method that adjusts tool motion and cutting force in real time along long, complex rail edges. Simulations and experiments showed reduced force fluctuations, improved force tracking, and good surface quality. The results support safer, more consistent, and automated switch rail deburring.
