Force and Torque Characterization in the Actuation of a Walking-Assistance, Cable-Driven Exosuit

open access: yesSensors, 2022
Soft exosuits stand out when it comes to the development of walking-assistance devices thanks to both their higher degree of wearability, lower weight, and price compared to the bulkier equivalent rigid exoskeletons.

Research on Longitudinal Vibration Characteristic of the Six-Cable-Driven Parallel Manipulator in FAST

open access: yesAdvances in Mechanical Engineering, 2013
The first adjustable feed support system in FAST is a six-cable-driven parallel manipulator. Due to flexibility of the cables, the cable-driven parallel manipulator bears a concern of possible vibration caused by wind disturbance or internal force from ...

Comparison of actuation schemes for wire-driven parallel robots [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
There are two main systems that can be used to coil and uncoil the wires of a wire-driven parallel robots: a rotary motor that turns a drum on which the wire is coiled or a linear motor with a pulley system.
