Optimum Design of a 3-RRR Planar Parallel Manipulator with a Singularity-Free Workspace

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, a reliable design strategy, capable of optimally picking out the geometrical parameters of the 3-RRR planar parallel manipulators, is presented. The distribution charts for singular loci and usable workspace shape are obtained in the non-dimensional design space. Based on the singularity-free workspace and good force transition capacity, the optimum kinematic parameters are determined by means of the global conditioning index. An example shows that the strategy is useful for realizing the singularity-free workspace optimally.
