2D-Kinematics Type 2 (P_2C2)

2D-Kinematics Type 2 (P_2C2) 1:

The 2D-Kinematics Type 2 (P_2C2) is configured as shown in the diagram above.

All motor axes are scaled in degrees; 0° is defined as shown in the diagram. The arrow indicates the positive direction.

Parameters for the Kinematics

Parameter

Description

Type

Unit

Inner arm length

Length between pivots of the inner arm

LREAL

mm

Outer arm length

Length between pivots of the outer arm

LREAL

mm

Displacement

Length between the center of the base plate and the virtual rotation axes of the inner arm

LREAL

mm

TCP link distance

Distance between pivots of the outer arm

LREAL

mm

Parameters for the Dynamic Model

Parameter

Description

Type

Unit

Inner arm mass

Total mass of the inner arm

LREAL

kg

Inner arm moment of inertia

Moment of inertia of the inner arm in relation to pivot point P1, which is linked with the motor.

LREAL

kg mm^2

Outer arm mass

The mass of the external arms minus the mass of the joint can optionally be described as a separate parameter.

LREAL

kg

First link mass

Mass of the joint linking the inner and outer arm. Can be used if the mass of the joint is not already included in the outer and inner arms.
The mass of the joint linking the gripper plate with the outer arm is not specified here. It can be added to the TCP mass.
The mass of the first joint refers to the inner arm that is linked to M1.

LREAL

kg

Second link mass

see First link mass
The mass of the second joint refers to the inner arm that is linked to M2.

LREAL

kg

TCP mass

Mass of the TCP, including gripper plate and gripper. The payload is usually described with a separate parameter.

LREAL

kg

First drive torque OID

Object ID of the first drive torque (see here)
If the motors and gear units of all motors behave in a similar way, all drive torques can be represented via an OID. Both parameters therefore refer to the same object ID.

OTCID

 

Second drive torque OID

Object ID of the second drive torque
