Determination of Singularities in Delta-Like Manipulators
نویسنده
چکیده
The DELTA robot and the manipulators derived from the DELTA robot are a relevant class of translational manipulators. In this paper, the mobility analysis of these parallel translational manipulators is developed in full. The manufacturing and mounting conditions that guarantee the pure translation of the platform are analytically derived. Moreover, it is demonstrated that these manipulators can assume singular configurations, called rotation singularities, in which they are no longer able to impose the platform translation. Finally, the geometric and analytic conditions that make it possible to find all the singular configurations of these manipulators are provided. KEY WORDS—kinematics, parallel mechanism, mobility analysis, singularities

Singularity-theoretic methods in robot kinematics
The significance of singularities in the design and control of robot manipulators is well known and there is an extensive literature on the determination and analysis of singularities for a wide variety of serial and parallel manipulators—indeed such an analysis is an essential part of manipulator design. Singularity theory provides methodologies for a deeper analysis with the aim of classifyin...
متن کاملA three translational DoFs parallel cube-manipulator
This paper concerns the presentation and analysis of a type of three translational degrees of freedom (DoFs) parallel cube-manipulator. The parallel manipulators are the topology architectures of the DELTA robot and Tsai’s manipulator, respectively, which have three translational DoFs. In the design, the three actuators are arranged according to the Cartesian coordinate system, which means that...
متن کاملSingularity Analysis of a 3-rrrr Redundant Spherical Parallel Manipulator
ABSTRACT Study of parallel manipulators highlights the importance of identifying singular configurations (singularities) during the design, and of avoiding them during the operation; because in these configurations the instantaneous kinematics of the manipulator becomes indeterminate. This paper focuses on the determination of singular configurations of a kinematically redundant 3-RRRR spherica...
متن کاملSingularities of Robot Manipulators
Engineers have for some time known that singularities play a significant role in the design and control of robot manipulators. Singularities of the kinematic mapping, which determines the position of the end–effector in terms of the manipulator’s joint variables, may impede control algorithms, lead to large joint velocities, forces and torques and reduce instantaneous mobility. However they can...
متن کاملA novel three degrees of freedom partially decoupled robot with linear actuators
(2012). A novel three degrees of freedom partially decoupled robot with linear SUMMARY In this work, a new translational robot formed with two different parallel manipulators with a common control point is introduced. An asymmetric parallel manipulator provides three translational degrees of freedom to the proposed robot while the orientation of the end-effector platform is kept constant by mea...
