Abstract:In general, the traditional spacecraft semi-physical docking tests include the evaluation of docking and separation performance. However, these tests often rely on “specific” equipment, such as specially designed actuators and fast-response hydraulic systems, to meet the stringent dynamic response requirements of semi-physical testing. In this paper, a novel docking test platform is designed based on a general-purpose industrial manipulator using 3-D force and 3-D torque sensors. Different from the traditional… Show more
