Abstract
A mechanical design of a parallel link compliant wrist is described based on the passive compliance analysis. The compliant wrist has a three degrees of freedom parallel link mechanism and provide the necessary flexibility for pick-and-place, grinding and polishing operations. It is shown that using the design method we can construct a compliant wrist which has a desired Cartesian stiffness and a suitable work space. We built a compliant wrist as an example and examined the characteristics
