Delta Robot Design

摘要

The article proposes an approach to the development of a Delta robot which is the most frequently used robot with a parallel kinematic structure for industrial fast pick and place applications. The approach is model based and it summarizes important steps for the successful design of a Delta robot for the given application including description of the kinematics, multi-body dynamics modelling and flexible bodies notes. This is demonstrated on the particular Delta robot developed at Brno University of Technology (BUT).
