Hybrid drive parallel arm for heavy material handling
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper presents a hybrid cylinder/wire drive parallel arm. Its workspace is analyzed for the application of manipulating heavy materials in construction and ship building industries. The conventional Stewart platform and a multiple wire drive mechanism are compared, and hybrid drive mechanisms are considered in analysis and designing. The total number of cylinder and wire is fixed to seven based on the force closure principle. The actuated cylinder force and wire tension are analyzed based on the kinematics and statics formulated for an arbitrary combination of cylinder and wire mechanism, then its work space is evaluated. An arm mechanism with three cylinders and four wires is proposed in 'the application of manipulating a precasting concrete board with 3 X 6 X 0 .2[m] in size and 10[t] in weight.

A facility layout problem is concerned with determining the best position of departments, cells, or machines on the plant. An efficient layout contributes to the overall efficiency of operations. It’s been proved that, when system characteristics change, it can cause a significant increase in material handling cost. Consequently, the efficiency of the current layout decreases or is lost and it ...
