Summary

A review which discusses current work on the development of manipulators and industrial robots is made. A mathematical algorithm for the kinematical investigation of manipulators and hand/arm systems of robots is conceived on the basis of a vector-complex operator. Thus, the relation between the movement of the object to be manipulated and the relative motion of the manipulator (hand/arm) linkages is clarified, wherein the distribution of the velocities in the end linkage (the hand) is determined. The dynamical response of the object is simulated by a system of permanent point masses. Finally, an example describing an automatic handling arrangement in hot forging industrial environment is discussed.
