The Orthoglide: Kinematics and Workspace Analysis

Robotics 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The paper addresses kinematic and geometrical aspects of the Orthoglide, a three-DOF parallel mechanism. This machine consists of three fixed linear joints, which are mounted orthogonally, three identical legs and a mobile platform, which moves in the Cartesian x-y-z space with fixed orientation. New solutions to solve inverse/direct kinematics are proposed and a detailed workspace analysis is performed taking into account specific joint limit constraints.
