Static performance improvement of an industrial robot by means of a cable-driven redundantly actuated system
نویسنده
چکیده
Every industrial robot has a specific kinematics, which often results in anisotropic performance within its workspace in terms of force and velocity. A cable-driven system can be used to improve the force manipulability of a robot by introducing an actuation redundancy. Such system acts directly on the robot end-effector increasing its flexibility of use in applications where a higher and more uniform force performance is required. This work is focused on high-thrust operations, for example robotic friction stir welding or incremental forming, realized by means of a highly anisotropic industrial robot. & 2015 Elsevier Ltd.

Dual Space Control of a Deployable Cable Driven Robot: Wave Based Approach
Known for their lower costs and numerous applications, cable robots are an attractive research field in robotic community. However, considering the fact that they require an accurate installation procedure and calibration routine, they have not yet found their true place in real-world applications. This paper aims to propose a new controller strategy that requires no meticulous calibration and ...
متن کاملThe influence of discrete-time control on the kinematico-static behavior of cable-driven parallel robot with elastic cables
Robots are controlled with a discrete-time controller that includes a highlevel loop for motion control and a faster internal loop that controls the actuators. We intend to simulate the behavior of the whole chain for a cable-driven parallel robot (CDPR) with linear elastic cables and we will show that such a simulation cannot be performed using classical simulation tools. We exhibit a simulati...

In this paper robust PID control of fully-constrained cable driven parallel manipulators with elastic cables is studied in detail. In dynamic analysis, it is assumed that the dominant dynamics of cable can be approximated by linear axial spring. To develop the idea of control for cable robots with elastic cables, a robust PID control for cable driven robots with ideal rigid cables is firstly de...
متن کاملRobust Fractional-order Control of Flexible-Joint Electrically Driven Robots
This paper presents a novel robust fractional PIλ controller design for flexible joint electrically driven robots. Because of using voltage control strategy, the proposed approach is free of problems arising from torque control strategy in the design and implementation. In fact, the motor's current includes the effects of nonlinearities and coupling in the robot manipulator. Therefore, cancella...
