Abstract: Composite repair mainly relies on manual, which has low efficiency, low accuracy, and experience can not be transplanted and other problems. The robot has the characteristics of high freedom, high flexibility and operation standardization. The combination of the repair process and robotic technology can automate the repair process of composite and greatly improve the repair efficiency and standardization. At present, some scholars have developed end-effector and robot automatic repair system suitable for drilling, grinding, automatic tape laying and monitoring in combination with the actual needs of the composite repair process, which to some extent solved the problems of low precision and unstable repair quality existing in the current manual repair, laying a technical foundation for the realization of high-quality repair of composite structures. According to the current research status of robot repair technology for composite, the research status and key technical problems of robotic drilling, robotic grinding, robotic tape laying and robotic inspection for composite material repair at home and abroad are deeply introduced, and the application of robot technology in the field of composite repair is analyzed. Finally, the future development of composite robot repair technology is prospected.
