A Novel Perspective in the Design of Cable-Driven Systems
Volume 12: Mechanics of Solids, Structures and Fluids, 2008This paper deals with a novel approach to the design of cable-driven systems. This kind of robots possesses several desirable features that distinguish them from common manipulators, such as: low-inertia, cost-effectiveness, safety, easy reconfiguration and transportability.

On the Design of Adaptive Cable-Driven Systems
Journal of Mechanisms and Robotics, 2011Several systematic approaches have been developed for the optimal design of cable-based systems. Global indices are usually employed to quantify the effectiveness of a specific design inside a reference region of the workspace. The performances at the moving platform are strictly related to cable configuration, which, in turn, depends on the pose of ...

Cable-Driven Tactor for Tactile Situational Awareness Systems
2008 Symposium on Haptic Interfaces for Virtual Environment and Teleoperator Systems, 2008In aviation, the Tactical Situation Awareness System (TSAS) developed by the Naval Medical Research Laboratory uses an array of tactors on the torso to provide intuitive orientation information to aircrew and operators [1]. Current tactor technology is limited in its ability to generate high amplitude signals without a tradeoff in size, weight, or cost.

Kinematic Modeling and Design of a Sensorized Cable-Routing System for Cable-Driven Parallel Robots
Mechanisms and Machine Science, 2022 Cable-Driven Parallel Robots (CDPRs) employ bendable cables instead of rigid links to move an end-effector (EE). Cables are wound on winches, routed through pulleys, and finally attached to the EE. The real-time Direct Kinematics of these manipulators is

Simple system for determining starting position of cable-driven manipulator
2010 International Conference on Computer Information Systems and Industrial Management Applications (CISIM), 2010The very simple and low cost linear position reader is presented. The position reader has been designed and employed for the specific cable-driven manipulator. The considered cable-pulley manipulator is the standard inverted Stewart platform improved to increase its operation ability in small workspaces.

Optimization of the Geometry of a Cable-Driven Storage and Retrieval System
2019This paper addresses the improvement of the geometrical design of a rack feeder that is based on cable-driven robot technology. Here, both the forces needed to approach a storage position in the high rack as well as the stiffness need to be optimized. An effective parametrization of the platform is introduced.

An asymmetric cable-driven mechanism for force control of exoskeleton systems
Mechatronics, 2016In this paper, an asymmetric cable-driven mechanism is proposed for accurate force control of exoskeleton systems with a compact structure. Inspired by the fact that the required forces in human motions are not symmetric in many cases, a spring-actuator type cable-drive mechanism is adopted, which enables a compact cable routing structure. The joint is

Simple cable-driven manipulator system as laboratory assistant
Proceedings of 2010 IEEE/ASME International Conference on Mechatronic and Embedded Systems and Applications, 2010The low cost computer teleoperation system with a simple cable-driven manipulator is presented. The system is dedicated to employ it in small workspaces of laboratories with hazardous materials. It has been designed to play a role of a versatile laboratory assistant and to make replace laboratory staff in all actions that can be dangerous to human ...

Cable-driven parallel robots for industrial applications: The IPAnema system family
IEEE ISR 2013, 2013Nowadays there are very little robot systems in operation in the field of medium to large-scale handling and assembly mostly due to lack of repetitive processes or shortcomings in programming and configuring such robots. In this paper we introduce a family of cable-driven parallel robot called IPAnema that are designed for industrial processes.
