Abstract: This paper takes a kind of 3-UPS Parallel Machine Tool (PMT) as the objective of research. First, the kinematic analysis is carried out to the machine and the kinematics equation is obtained. Then, the mathematical model on tool posture error of this machine is established in considering the joint gap based on the kinematics equation. According to the mathematical model expression, the posture error of tool tip point can be calculated when the specific values to the length error of the driving rod and the position error of the joint point are known. The establishment of error model has important theoretical significance to the design as well as the error analysis and compensation of this Parallel Machine Tool.

Abstract: This paper takes one kind of 3-TPT Hybrid Machine Tools (HMT) as the object to study. It mainly analyzes the influence of the parallelogram mechanism as the restraining chain of machine on the posture error of movable platform. Firstly, on the basis of introducing the structure of HMT, the kinematics of the restraining chain of this machine is analyzed, and the kinematics equation of the restraining chain is established. Secondly, the influence of two kinds of factors including the shape error of parallelogram mechanism and the micro-rotation of Hooker joint around the axis of connecting rod is analyzed respectively, and the theoretical relationship expression is acquired between various errors influencing factor and the posture error of movable platform, thus the foundation for the theoretical error analysis of the HMT is laid.

Abstract: This paper deals with the dimensional synthesis of a 2UPS-UPR parallel mechanism tool newly designed by Northeastern University. On the basis of establishing kinematics equations and obtaining Jacobian matrix, the performance index of dimensional synthesis is given which is the average of 729 values of the condition number of Jacobian matrix corresponding to 729 positions in the workspace. With MATLAB software, the effects are simulated which the structural parameters of parallel machine tools have on dimensional synthesis, their change laws are gained, and then dimensional synthesis of parallel machine tools is conducted based on these laws.
