This paper concerns the trajectory planning and simulation for 6R Manipulator. First, algebraic method was used to deduce the forward and inverse kinematics of 6R manipulator. All inverse solutions were expressed in atan2 to eliminate redundant roots to get the corresponding inverse formula. For the trajectory planning of manipulator in Cartesian space, using the cubic spline interpolation to get the drive function of joint, getting a unique solution from eight group inverses by the shortest distance criterion, and then obtained the actual end-effector trajectory. Using Matlab to verify the proposed trajectory planning method, validated results show that the proposed algorithm is feasible and effective.

To improve the arc trajectory precision of puma560 end-effector passing the non-collinear three points and reduce the calculation amount of real-time interpolation, In this paper, the quaternion is used to describe the end attitude of the manipulator, and the five-segment S-curve normalization operator is applied to the spherical interpolation of the quaternion, it make the orientation change smoothly, and the speed does not change suddenly. At the same time, it proposes to apply the five-segment s-curve in the manipulator Cartesian space interpolation algorithm to achieve a smooth transition to velocity and acceleration, avoiding the vibration of the manipulator effectively. In this paper, we use Matlab as a simulation platform to analyze the kinematics of manipulator, and to perform arc trajectory planning in the manipulator Cartesian space, and also perform simulation verification on the orientation trajectory. The simulation results show that the algorithm can guarantee the smooth transition to angular velocity and angular acceleration, avoid sudden change of the orientation of the manipulator, and verify the effect of the trajectory planning visually. It provides an efficient and feasible trajectory planning method.

In this paper, the cable routing configurations for a cable-driven manipulator are introduced, and the impact of motion coupling caused by cable transmission routing of a 2n type cable-driven manipulator is analyzed in detail. Based on different configurations of cable routings, the relationship between variation of joint angles and the geometrical sizes of guide pulleys is established, represented by a matrix for coupled motion. Moreover, based on the effects of the motion coupling of a cable-driven manipulator, we propose the condition for the invariance of orientation, which can be achieved constraining of the geometrical sizes of guide pulleys and driven wheels. In addition, to identify the correctness of analysis for coupled motion, a 3-DOFs planer cable-driven manipulator prototyping model is constructed, and the kinematics and trajectory planning has been solved. Finally, the relationship among actuator space, joint space, and Cartesian space, including the mapping of the motion coupling, is experimentally validated. The property of invariance of orientation is also validated by an experiment.
