Modeling and Workplace Analysis of 3T Cable-Driven Parallel Manipulator

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper analyzes the dynamic modeling and workplace of the 3T cable-driven parallel manipulator. The mechanism utilizes four cables to driven. Firstly, the kinematics equations and the inverse dynamics model were set up for the analysis. And then, pseudo-drag is a serious problem in cable-driven parallel manipulator, this paper give a method to find the workplace under the condition of pseudo-drag. Finally, through numerical simulation, the workplace of the mechanism satisfying the demand is presented by comprehensive analysis.
