Structural Design and Analysis of a New Semi-Direct Drive Robot Arm: Theory and Experiment
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper reports the mechanical design, structural analysis, and experimental veri cation of a new high performance semi-direct drive robot arm. A design optimization methodology employing nite element analysis (FEA) is reviewed, and a resulting arm design is reported. FEA simulations of the nal design predict high structural vibration frequencies throughout the arms workspace. Extensive structural vibration experiments with the completed manipulator con rm the predicted structural vibration characteristics throughout the arm's workspace.

Adaptive Voltage-based Control of Direct-drive Robots Driven by Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motors
Tracking control of the direct-drive robot manipulators in high-speed is a challenging problem. The Coriolis and centrifugal torques become dominant in the high-speed motion control. The dynamical model of the robotic system including the robot manipulator and actuators is highly nonlinear, heavily coupled, uncertain and computationally extensive in non-companion form. In order to overcome thes...
متن کاملDesign and Analysis of a Novel Tendon-less Backbone Robot
A new type of backbone robot is presented in this paper. The core idea is to use a cross shape mechanism with the principle of functioning of the scissors linkages, known as a pantograph. Although this continuum arm acts quite similar to tendon-driven robot, this manipulator does not include any tendon in its structure. This design does not suffer from the weaknesses of the continuum design suc...
