Kinematic Analysis of Lunar Exploration Manipulator

Abstract:

The lunar exploration manipulator is an important part of lunar rover, which is also an important tool for the exploration of the moon. This paper simplifies the lunar exploration manipulator into two arms manipulator, which has three joint activities. Then analyze the motion of the manipulator to get the motion equation by the method of D-H, and also analyze the motion equations with the lunar rover base has a declination. In order to verify the correctness of the motion equations, the paper used the ADAMS software to simulate the motion of the manipulator.
