Modelling experimental procedures for manipulator calibration

Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited === A six-degree of freedom manipulator, a PUMA 560, is calibrated using three different measurement systems in order to improve the accuracy of the manipulator. Closed loop kinematic chain modeling theory is presented. Variations in the model...

Closed loop kinematic chain modeling theory is presented. Variations in the models for each calibration method are presented. A simulation study is conducted to determine feasibility of the proposed methods. Experimental data is obtained and the actual calibration performed.
