Calibration of a Fully-Constrained Parallel Cable-Driven Robot

  • Conference paper

Part of the book series: CISM International Centre for Mechanical Sciences ((CISM,volume 544))

Abstract

An identification of the model parameters for a parallel cable-driven robot (8 cables for 6 degrees of freedom) is performed by using both a calibration and a self-calibration approach. Additionally, advanced tools and algorithmic improvements are presented to perform the parameter identification. A complete experimentation validates the robot accuracy improvement.
