  • Abstract
    In this paper we present control of a multicable suspended mechanism called the `2D SpiderCrane´ based on controlled Lagrangian approach. SpiderCrane does not have any conventional heavy mobile components by virtue of which high transfer speeds are achievable. Using the method of controlled Lagrangian a control law is developed based on continuous-time kinetic and potential energy shaping. Simulations are carried out in MATLAB.
