A new type of a 2-PRS/2-UPS 4-DOF parallel platform was introduced. The error model of the parallel worktable was established through the vector method. The effect of structural error, driving error, position error and clearance error of the joint point to the pose error of the moving platform can be analyzed. Error modeling provides theoretical foundation for design and error compensation of the parallel mechanism.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
