Abstract
In this paper, a new six degrees of freedom (6-DOF) parallel manipulator with adjustable actuators is proposed. The kinematic model is firstly established and the kinematic analysis is performed afterward. Then the equations of motion are developed based on the concept of link Jacobian matrices. Finally, the principle of virtual work is applied to analyze the dynamics of this 6-PSS parallel manipulator. This methodology can be used on other types of parallel manipulators not only for 6-DOF but also with less than 6-DOF. To solve the inverse dynamics of the manipulator, a computational algorithm is developed and two trajectories of the moving platform are simulated.
