Delta Robotics Research at IGMR, RWTH Aachen University, Germany
摘要
In this paper, we present the robotics research at IGMR with special emphasis on Delta robots from its start about 10 years ago until very recently. This research history is also strongly connected with our research collaboration with Science Tokyo and an intensive exchange of students and PhD candidates between IGMR of RWTH Aachen University and the Mechanical Systems Design Laboratory (MSD) of Tokyo Tech, now Science Tokyo, led by Yukio Takeda. Starting from topological, kinematic and dynamic optimization of Delta robots, the research concentrated on sustainable Delta robots with increased energy efficiency, high precision and minimized vibrations.
