Development of the Linear Delta Robot for Additive Manufacturing

摘要

This article deals with the conceptual design and dimensional synthesis of the parallel linear Delta robot for additive manufacturing. In the conceptual development, the QFD matrix is used to in order to translate user requirements into design parameters. A set of technical specifications is defined, analyzed and evaluated to generate and select engineering solutions concepts. These concepts enable to describe the form, functions and features of the linear delta robot. Secondly, a dimensional synthesis method applied on design of the linear delta robot is presented.
