Automatic guided vehicles with omnidirectional wheels have three degrees of freedom (DOF), their full mobility being obtained by virtue of the free rollers around the periphery of...
— A new three degrees of freedom translational parallel manipulator (TPM) with fixed actuators, called a general 3-PRC TPM, is proposed in this paper. The mobility of the manipu...
In previous studies on 4-DOF parallel mechanisms with four sub-chains, only symmetric arrangement of those four chains connected to the top plate was considered. Such symmetric sha...
This paper presents a sensitivity analysis of the Orthoglide, a 3-DOF translational Parallel Kinematic Machine. Two complementary methods are developed to analyze its sensitivity ...
—In this paper, we propose a new 3-DOF parallel mechanism for PDP TV mounting device with 2-rotation and 1-translation. The most important operational requirement of this device ...
