This paper presents a three Degrees of Freedom (DOFs) parallel manipulator with no
rotational capacity. Planar kinematic pairs (revolute joint and prismatic joint) are exclusively …

In this work, we shall present a novel design of a 3-translational-DOF in-parallel manipulator
having 3 linear actuators. Three variable length legs constitute the actuators of this …

This paper addresses kinematics and singularity analysis of a novel symmetrical four
degrees of freedom (DOFs) parallel manipulator, known as 4 UPS+ 1 PS manipulator. The …

In this paper, a novel four degrees of freedom (DOFs) parallel manipulator (PM) is
introduced and its kinematics, workspace and optimal design are systematically studied. The …

In this paper, a novel planar two degrees of freedom parallel mechanism is presented that
employs two parallelogram mechanisms and constrains the platform of the mechanism …

Most of the existing parallel robotic manipulators have coupled motion between the position
and orientation of the end-effector. The complexity of the multi-axial manipulation produces …

A novel 3-DOF uncoupled spatial parallel manipulator is presented. Firstly, geometrical
structure and mobility analysis of the manipulator are addressed. Then the forward and the …

This work presents a novel design of a hybrid serial–parallel Stewart like mechanism (HS-
PM). This design presents a compromise between high rigidity of fully parallel manipulators …

From the first ideas of parallel manipulator proposed by Gough and Stewart, parallel
manipulators have been found in many industrial applications. In the past two decades, a …

This study addresses the kinematics of a six-degrees-of-freedom parallel manipulator whose
moving platform is a regular triangular prism. The moving and fixed platforms are connected …
