Design of a Three-Degree of Freedom Planar Parallel Mechanism for the Active Dynamic Balancing of Delta Robots

Robotics
Delta robots are the most common parallel robots for manipulation tasks. In many industrial applications, they must be operated at reduced speed, or dwell times have to be included in the motion planning, to prevent frame vibrations.
