The Dynamic Effects of Robotic Grasping Considering Flexible Joints

摘要

Abstract In this paper the dynamics of an important and frequently used robotic working process is investigated. The robot manipulator approaches, suddenly grasps and lifts a three dimensional object which is travelling on a conveyor. The spatial robot manipulator has two rigid links, rigid rotors and flexible joints. In order to model the joint flexibility, one-degree of freedom torsional springs have been used. The effects of continuous and discontinuous constraint equations are analysed. Simulation results are presented.
