Because of their large workspace, robot manipulators have the potential to be used for high precision non-contact manufacturing processes, such as laser cutting or welding, on large complex work pieces. However, most industrial manipulators are not able to provide the necessary accuracy requirements…
In order to fulfill conflicting requirements in the development of industrial robots, such as increased accuracy of a weightreduced manipulator with lower mechanical stiffness, the robot's dynamical behavior must be evaluated early in the development process. This leads to the need of accurate multi…
Over the past decade we have been able to vastly improve the control algorithms of our biped walking robot LOLA. Further enhancements, however, are limited by vibration problems caused by the dynamics of LOLA's mechanical structure. In this work, we present small examples how structural dynamics lim…
