[EN] The need of a device providing two-translational and two-rotational movements led us to design a 3UPS-1RPU parallel manipulator. The manipulator consisted of a mobile platform connected to a base through one central ...
[EN] Although parallel manipulators started with the introduction of architectures with six degrees of freedom, a vast number of applications require less than six degrees of freedom. Consequently, scholars have proposed ...

The aim of this article is to develop, from the mechatronic point of view, a low-cost parallel manipulator (PM) with 3-degrees of freedom (DOF). The robot has to be able to generate and control one translational motion ...
