Enhanced contour control of SCARA robot under torque saturation constraint

摘要

Contour control of a robot arm is an act of the end-effector tip being moved along a reference Cartesian path, with an assigned velocity. When torque saturation occurs, and lasts for some time, contour deteriorations result. In addition, system delay dynamics also causes contour deteriorations. In this paper, an offline trajectory generation algorithm is described, which achieves both optimum avoidance of torque saturation and delay dynamics compensation.
