Abstract
This paper proposes a hybrid parallel robot for friction stir welding(FSW), and carries out a systematic kinematic analysis and reachable workspace analysis of this parallel robot. A gap-containing ball-hinge model is introduced to establish the dynamics of the FSW parallel robot by combining the different welding stages of FSW, solving the driving force of each strut chain under a typical trajectory and inversely solving the motion trajectory by forward dynamics. Joint Reflected Inertia (JRI) and Coefficient of Variation of Joint Space Inertia (CVI) are introduced to analyze the dynamics performance of the FSW parallel robot. The results show that when the FSW parallel robot is under a large expansion and contraction amount and a large turning angle, which leads to the deterioration of the inertia and acceleration performance between the robot's struts, resulting in the precision being affected, the FSW should be kept operating under smaller values of the JRI and the CVI, to ensure the efficient and precise execution of the complex tasks.
