[0003] Its main defects are as follows: (1) Pneumatic floating grinding heads and electric floating grinding heads are generally expensive, with high costs. (2) When the six-axis force sensor is not installed, the grinding head lacks force control and is easily damaged due to excessive force. (3) The six-axis force sensor is also relatively expensive. After installing the six-axis force sensor, the cost is even higher, and the six-axis force sensor has a range limit. When the misoperation exceeds the range, the six-axis force sensor is easily damaged, resulting in high maintenance costs. Content of the Utility Model
