Abstract :
There is a need to assess the kinestatic performance of robots because of the large variations in performance within the reachable workspace which are due entirely to the robot kinematic design. A description of kinestatic performance measures is given, and the advantages of using the force transmission ratio are presented. Such measures have been shown to be useful in the design of position and force trajectories for two arm robots
