At a singularity the end-effector loses one or more degrees of twist freedom (instantaneously, the end-effector cannot move in these directions). Serial robots with less than six independent joints are always singular in the sense that they can never span a six-dimensional twist space. This is often called an architectural singularity.
SCARA [5] is an acronym for Selective Compliance Assembly Robot Arm. [11] SCARA robots are recognized by their two parallel joints which provide movement in the X-Y plane. [5] Rotating shafts are positioned vertically at the effector. SCARA robots are used for jobs that require precise lateral movements. They are ideal for assembly applications ...
By virtue of the SCARA's parallel-axis joint layout, the arm is slightly compliant in the X-Y direction but rigid in the Z direction, hence the term selective compliance. This is advantageous for many types of assembly operations, for example, inserting a round pin in a round hole without binding.
An example of a simple open chain is a serial robot manipulator. These robotic systems are constructed from a series of links connected by six one degree-of-freedom revolute or prismatic joints, so the system has six degrees of freedom. An example of a simple closed chain is the RSSR spatial four-bar linkage.
The four parameters of classic DH convention are shown in red text, which are θ i, d i, a i, α i. With those four parameters, we can translate the coordinates from O i–1 X i–1 Y i–1 Z i–1 to O i X i Y i Z i. The following four transformation parameters are known as D–H parameters: [4] d: offset along previous z to the common normal
A comparison diagram is a general type of diagram, meaning a class of specific diagrams and charts, in which a comparison is made between two or more objects, phenomena or groups of data. They are a tool for visual comparison. When it comes to comparing data, five basic types of comparison can be determined. [2]
In classical mechanics, a kinematic pair is a connection between two physical objects that imposes constraints on their relative movement ().German engineer Franz Reuleaux introduced the kinematic pair as a new approach to the study of machines [1] that provided an advance over the notion of elements consisting of simple machines.
One of the links is the ground or base. [1] This configuration is also called a pantograph, [2] [3] however, it is not to be confused with the parallelogram-copying linkage pantograph. The linkage can be a one-degree-of-freedom mechanism if two gears are attached to two links and are meshed together, forming a geared five-bar mechanism. [1]
