Although cable-driven robots and parallel manipulators have very similar architecture, the
presence of the unidirectional constraints in cable-driven robots makes it impossible to apply …

Generating a defined motion is one of the fundamental tasks for a machine. By definition, a
robot is a universal machine dedicated to creating motion that can be freely programmed. A …

In this paper, we study the design and workspace of a 6–6 cable-suspended parallel robot.
The workspace volume is characterized as the set of points where the centroid of the moving …

The mobile platform of a parallel cable-driven mechanism is connected in parallel to a base
by lightweight links, such as cables. Since the cables can only work in tension, the set of …

This paper presents a method for analytically generating the boundaries of the wrench-
feasible workspace (WFW) for cable robots. This method uses the available net wrench set …

Large workspace is one of the promising advantages possessed by the cable-driven parallel
robots (CDPR) over the conventional rigid-link robots. This paper focuses on the dynamic …

For Cable-Driven Parallel Manipulators (CDPMs), employing redundant driving cables is
necessary to obtain the full manipulation of the moving platform because of the unilateral …

In this paper we present a workspace analysis methodology that can be applied for optimal
design of cable-suspended planar parallel robots. The significant difference between …

In this study, a path-planning method that has been developed for serial manipulators is
adapted to cable-driven robots. The proposed method has two modes. The first one is active …

The dynamic equilibrium of the moving platform of a cable-driven parallel robot can be
investigated by means of the Dynamic Feasible Workspace (DFW), which is the set of …
