Abstract
This study proposes a novel 6-PUS+6-SPS/6-UPS hybrid parallel configuration that achieves wide-range motion with high resolution under heavy loads. This configuration consists of three closely coordinated subsystems, thus achieving large stroke, high resolution, and high load-bearing capacity simultaneously. First, this study analyzes how the parameters and arrangement of the configuration affects its motion performance. Second, this study presents a design method for the 6-PUS+6-SPS/6-UPS parallel configuration to meet the requirements. Finally, this study details the design of a prototype based on the proposed theory, and conducts experiments to verify the effectiveness.
