Cable Driven Robot Arm

Ambidex is a robot arm resulting from collaborative r d on human robot coexistence.

Cable driven robot arm.

Soft robotics has attracted great attention because of its potential to overcome safety issues and produce a more harmonious cooperative environment for human beings and robots. Research team at mit invents cable differential drive high speed cable drive and haptic wam robotic arm 1990 barrett technology inc. The particular property of cables provides cdprs several advantages including larger workspaces higher payload to weight ratio and lower manufacturing costs rather than rigid link robots. Manually controlled robot by one person performing assembly operations magnet suspension cable robots in automated logistic operations cables robot for inspection and maintenance of big components painting on a curved surface with a robot arm mounted on the cable driven robot s mobile platform.

Incorporated 1991 barrett markets brushless motor with integrated drive electronics 1992 us patents issued on cable drive technologies 1993. Zhilenkov 3 aleksandr y. Cable driven robotic arm implement kine matics and d ynamics. Cable driven parallel robots cdprs are categorized as a type of parallel manipulators.

Cableendy is cable driven parallel robot project at b r automation brno cz office. Krasnov 2 and sergei chernyi 4 1 school of automation hangzhou dianzi university hangzhou 310018 china. One of the main challenges hindering its wider application to the daily routine is the dynamic. In cdprs flexible cables are used to take the place of rigid links.

Thus in practice it is proposed to only include the dominant effects in the dynamic analysis. In the dynamic modeling of cable driven robots it should be noticed that a complete dynamic model for cable driven robots is very complicated. Chepinskiy 2 jian wang 1 anton a. Furthermore since the obtained model shall be used in controller design further simplifications are needed.

Analysis present different cable driven designs and evaluate. Their merits and drawbacks. Juggling version of robot was created for international engineering fair. The arm uses innovative cable driven mechanisms that make any interaction with humans safe.
