Workspace computation in parallel manipulators with three translational degrees of freedom
نویسندگان
چکیده
One of the weak aspects of the parallel robots is ratio between the workspace and the dimension of the mechanical structure, if compared with the serial one. Hence the shape of the workspace of a parallel manipulator is one of the most important aspects to reflect its working capacity. This paper introduces two innovative methods to analyze the workspace of some family of parallel robots, with the aim of highlighting its shape.

Dexterous Workspace Shape and Size Optimization of Tricept Parallel Manipulator
This work intends to deal with the optimal kinematic synthesis problem of Tricept parallel manipulator. Observing that cuboid workspaces are desirable for most machines, we use the concept of effective inscribed cuboid workspace, which reflects requirements on the workspace shape, volume and quality, simultaneously. The effectiveness of a workspace is characterized by the dexterity of the manip...

(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...
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 کاملTopological Synthesis of Translational Parallel Manipulators
For translational parallel manipulators (TPMs), topology synthesis methods that can be found in the literature are mainly based on screw theory, instantaneous kinematics, or group theory. In this work, finite displacement equations are used for the topology synthesis of TPM. Serial chains with less than 6 degrees of freedom (DOF) are first investigated and, topological conditions for them to ge...
