The mechanical design and control system of 9 DOF robotic crane

This work presents the status of running project (2007-2010). The new nine degrees of freedom cable driven robot has been developed. Main parts: the mechanical design of parallel manipulator and the heart of control system have been presented. The preliminary tests of the prototype application have been performed. As the final result of the project, a robotic cable driven crane will be developed, applicable in a wide range of practical commercial solutions
