In this book advanced balancing methods for planar and spatial linkages, hand operated
and automatic robot manipulators are presented. It is organized into three main parts and …

The authors summarize the main dynamic balancing methods of robotic mechanisms in this
paper. The majority of dynamic balancing methods have been presented, and there may be …

The major disadvantage of existing dynamic balancing principles is that a considerable
amount of mass and inertia is added to the system. The objectives of this article are to …

Shaking forces and shaking moments in high-speed parallel manipulators are a significant
cause of base vibrations. These vibrations can be eliminated by designing the manipulator …

The balancing of linkages is an integral part of the mechanism design. Despite its long
history, mechanism balancing theory continues to be developed and new approaches and …

The Delta robot has shown to be a useful device in many applications. Due to large
accelerations however, vibrations can decrease the accuracy and performance …

Considering balancing as starting point in the design of mechanisms and manipulators is
known as inherent balancing. Inherently balanced linkage architectures then form the basis …

Dynamic balance is an important feature of high speed mechanisms and robotics that need
to minimize vibrations of the base. The main disadvantage of dynamic balancing, however …

For a mechanism with many elements that needs to be shaking-force and shaking-moment
balanced with a low addition of mass, a low addition of inertia, and a low addition of …

When dynamically balanced mechanisms and robots are used for pick and place motion, the
payload influences the dynamic balance. The payload can be a cause of serious vibrations …
