Grinding system, trajectory generation method, and product manufacturing method

Abstract

A grinding system 1 comprises: a grinding device 10 including a grinding tool 22 grinding a target material 80; a pressing force measurement device 14 that measures a grinding pressing force acting on the target material 80 from the grinding tool 22; and a control device 12 that generates, based on a three-dimensional shape of a surface of the target material 80 and a position and shape of a removal target 82 in the target material 80, a trajectory of the grinding tool 22 for grinding out the removal target 82, and controls the grinding device 10 to move the grinding tool 22 based on the trajectory. The 10 control device 12 generates the trajectory so that at least one of a movement velocity of the grinding tool 22 relative to the target material 80 or the grinding pressing force will change depending on a position of the grinding tool 22.
