    Abstract

    This paper focuses on the performance evaluation of the parallel manipulators
    for milling of composite materials. For this application the most significant
    performance measurements, which denote the ability of the manipulator for the
    machining are defined. In this case, optimal synthesis task is solved as a
    multicriterion optimization problem with respect to the geometric, kinematic,
    kinetostatic, elastostostatic, dynamic properties. It is shown that stiffness
    is an important performance factor.

    Abstract

    This paper discusses the utility of using simple stiffness and vibrations
    models, based on the Jacobian matrix of a manipulator and only the rigidity of
    the actuators, whenever its geometry is optimised. In many works, these
    simplified models are used to propose optimal design of robots. However, the
    elasticity of the drive system is often negligible in comparison with the
    elasticity of the elements, especially in applications where high dynamic
    performances are needed.
