Kinematic calibration of Delta robot using distance measurements

摘要

This paper deals with kinematic calibration of the Delta robot using distance measurements. The work is mainly placed upon: (1) the error modeling with a goal to classify the source errors affecting both the compensatable and uncompensatable pose accuracy; (2) the full/partial source error identification using a set of distance measurements acquired by a laser tracker; and (3) design of a linearized compensator for real-time error compensation. Experimental results on a prototype show that positioning accuracy of the robot can significantly be improved by the proposed approach.
