Abstract

This paper discusses characteristics, mechanism analysis, a design method and an overview of a prototype parallel link manipulator. An evaluation criteria is introduced by analyzing the manipulator statics using the singular value decomposition to realize a well balanced parallel mechanism. Based on this criteria a new configuration is proposed and the basic characteristics of a prototype manipulator are discussed.
