Cable-suspended planar parallel robots with redundant cables: controllers with positive cable tensions
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cable-suspended robots are structurally similar to parallel actuated robots but with the fundamental difference that cables can only pull the end-effector but not push it. From a scientific point of view, this feature makes feedback control of cable-suspended robots lot more challenging than their counterpart parallel-actuated robots. In the case with redundant cables, feedback control laws can be designed to make all tensions positive while attaining desired control performance. This paper describes these approaches and their effectiveness is demostrated through simulations of a three degree-offreedom cable suspended robots with four, five, and six cables.

Stability Analysis and Robust PID Control of Cable Driven Robots Considering Elasticity in Cables
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 کاملInterval Analysis of Controllable Workspace for Cable Robots
Workspace analysis is one of the most important issues in the robotic parallel manipulator design. However, the unidirectional constraint imposed by cables causes this analysis more challenging in the cabledriven redundant parallel manipulators. Controllable workspace is one of the general workspace in the cabledriven redundant parallel manipulators due to the dependency on geometry parameter...
متن کاملModeling a Planar Point Mass Sagged Cable-Suspended Manipulator
This paper deals with the kinetostatic model for a planar point mass cable-driven parallel manipulator when the cable elasticity and configuration have been fully taken into account. An exact model solution for the statics is obtained by consider elastic hefty cables. The proposed formulation allows considering specific behavior of cables for large dimensions cable-suspended robots in which the...
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...
متن کاملOn the robustness of cable configurations of suspended cable-driven parallel robots
Cable-driven parallel robot (CDPR) are parallel robots that use coilable cables as legs. We are interested here in suspended CDPR for which there is no cable that exert a downward force on the platform. If we assume that the cables are mass-less and not elastic it has been shown that at a given pose whatever is the number m > 6 of cables there will always be at most 6 cables under tension simul...
