The Optimization Design of High Precision Long-Range Cartesian Coordinate Robots’ Drive System

Abstract:

At present, Cartesian Coordinate Robot driving systems have several ways, such as timing-belt, screw, rack-pinion and chain. But, they are difficult to synchronously meet needs of high precision, long range and heavy load. In this paper, Trochoid Cam Gear (TCG) was used as main transmission mechanism to implement high precision and long range motion of the secondary girder of a Cartesian Coordinate Robot, and disposed reasonably the space positions of linear rails and servo motors to meet the needs of heavy load.
