Abstract

In this article, the 3RRR planar parallel manipulator (PPM) is considered for modeling and performance analysis. As the revolute joints have better performance compared to prismatic joints because of frictional losses, in this paper, an attempt is made to calculate all possible performance indices. The 3RRR PPM is modeled, and performance indices like condition number, singularity, transmissibility, manipulability, stiffness and velocity indices are calculated. The three revolute joints (R) are considered, and the R indicates the actuated joint. Performance indices measurement is useful to the manipulator design, analysis, understanding and application of robotic manipulators to specific fields. Various different performance indices have been used to study the behavior of robotic manipulators from the inception of robots. This work is useful to have a clear understanding of 3RRR planar parallel manipulators.
