Abstract

This paper presents aspects of geometrical calibration for partner parallel robot with 6 DOF, based on a wire tracking system. The wire tracking system was designed as a parallel manipulator with 3-2-1 configuration. The environment Matlab/Simulink was used to connect the models developed for both calibrated robot and the robot used in calibration with a virtual environment. Also, the paper presents the results obtained after performing virtual calibration simulations.
