The article deals with the application of vision guided parallel robot FANUC M-1iA for automated assembly process. Vision system is used for object identification and filtering the data about its position and orientation. Control system based on iR Vision system can process data collected from camera Sony XC-56 fixed to the frame and navigate the end-effector to grasp and move selected objects. Integration of vision guided robot control into the high speed parallel robot can be highly productive. The functionality of vision guided robot system is demonstrated at automated assembly process of USB memory stick with variable positioning of its components.

Abstract. The article deals with the analysis of the transfer and distribution of inaccuracies from actuators to the position of the point TCP on one of these machines. The real functional model of the mechanism was developed at the authors' workplace. The analyses of the workspace were carried out on CAD model. The results should be used for simulation of mechanism's behaviour, structural optimization as well as for generating of control algorithms for real functional prototype.

The article deals with the preparation of simulation model of mechanism with parallel kinematic structure called hexapod as an electro-mechanical system in software MATLAB/Simulink. The simulation model is composed from functional blocks represented each part of mechanism’s kinematic structure with certain properties. The results should be used for further simulation of its behaviour as well as for generating of control algorithms for real functional prototype.
