Reducing the Frame Vibration of Delta Robot in Pick and Place Application: An Acceleration Profile Optimization Approach
Delta robot is typically mounted on a frame and performs high speed pick and place tasks from top to bottom.Because of its outstanding accelerating capability and higher center of mass, the Delta robot can generate significant frame vibration.Existing trajectory smoothing methods mainly focus on vibration reduction for the robot instead of the fram
