Kinematics Performance and Structural Analysis for the Design of a Serial-Parallel Manipulator Transferring a Billet for a Hot Extrusion Forging Process

To reduce the downtime and optimize the use of energy and manpower, a serial-parallel manipulator is designed for transferring heavy billets for a hot extrusion forging station. With the purpose of increasing the structural rigidity and restricting the end-effector (a gripper) so that it always move...
