Calibration Optimization of Kinematics and Dynamics for Delta Robot Driven by Integrated Joints in Machining Task

摘要

For the application of Delta robots with a 3-R(RPaR) configuration in machining tasks, this paper constructed a 54-parameter kinematic error model and a simplified dynamic model incorporating an integrated joint’s position error and friction, respectively. Utilizing Singular Value Decomposition (SVD) of the Linear Model Coefficient Matrix (LMCM) and the coefficient chart, a criterion for identifiability of error components is established. For good identification results, the optimal measurement surface with Fourier series form is obtained using a combination of the Hook–Jeeves Direct Search Algorithm (DSA) and Inner Point Method (IPM). The friction coefficients and other dynamic parameters are obtained through fitting the integrated joint torque-angle pairs measured along specific trajectories using nonlinear least squares regression. The validation of the calibration process is conducted through simulations and experiments. The calibration results provide a foundation for the precise control of integrated joints and the high-precision motion of robots.
