Active Complaint Control for Smooth and Quick Connector Assembly*

Abstract

This paper presents an active complaint control for smooth and quick connector assembly. The application requirement of an end-effector with simultaneous connecters is firstly defined. Then, the hybrid impedance control provides the foundation for active search and passive assembly. After that, a resolution-variant Lissajous search is proposed for smooth motion and earlier connection. At last, simulations and experiments indicate that the proposed controller can guarantee smooth and quick search for connector assembly.
