Original Abstract Submitted
the present invention provides a deburring device capable of removing a burr with high precision. a deburring device for removing a burr formed on a joint of metal members joined together by friction stir welding (fsw) includes: a deburrer including a cutting blade that cuts the burr formed on the joint, a drive mechanism that drives the cutting blade to rotate, and a guide roller that has a diameter equal to or smaller than the cutting blade, is able to rotate coaxially with the cutting blade, and makes contact with a surface of the joined metal members at the joint to control the amount of cutting by the cutting blade; a mover that moves the deburrer along the joint; and an orientation controller that controls an orientation of the deburrer according to the shape of the surface of the joined metal members.
