ABSTRACT:
An interface for incorporation between an articulated arm robot and a cutting nozzle for cutting a circular opening in a workpiece. The interface includes apparatus for moving the cutting nozzle independently of the arm robot. The interface includes a first moving mechanism for moving the cutting device linearly to an offset position with respect to an axis extending through a center of the opening to be cut, and a second moving mechanism for moving the offset cutting nozzle in a circular path around the axis to cut the opening.
