In machining processes, contouring accuracy is usually more important than tracking performance. In order to reduce the contour error, there have been many contour control algorithms for conventional machine tools, which noticeably improve their contouring accuracy. However, the available contour control algorithms cannot be directly applied to the parallel machine tools. The dynamic characteristics of the parallel machine tools are not consistent inside workspace and unsymmetrical disturbances can be imposed on any axis. Due to these, mismatched dynamics cause unwanted contour error. In this paper, we present a contour control algorithm for the cubic parallel machine tool that employs the parallel mechanism for its moving table, which can be also applied to a general parallel manipulator. The contour error estimation method for free-formed curve trajectory is proposed and the relation between the contour error vectors in joint and Cartesian spaces is considered. In order to show the validity of the algorithm, the contour control simulations and experiments are made for various contour trajectories with the cubic parallel machine tool. The results show that the proposed controller reduces the contour error considerably both in joint and Cartesian spaces.

Workspaces of two plane-symmetry parallel machine tools whose limbs are composed of the revolute joint, the prismatic joint and the spherical joint were studied comparatively in this paper. Firstly, manipulators of the plane-symmetry 3-RPS parallel machine tool and the plane-symmetry 3-SPR parallel machine tool were introduced, and their simulation manipulators were given. Secondly, the workspaces of the plane-symmetry 3-RPS parallel machine tool and the plane-symmetry 3-SPR parallel machine tool were solved and expressed in the same figure on the basis of the computer aided geometric technique method, respectively. Lastly, indices measuring the workspace were defined, and workspaces of the plane-symmetry 3-RPS parallel machine tool and the plane-symmetry 3-SPR parallel machine tool were analyzed comparatively from two aspects: positional workspace and posture angle.

This paper took a 3-UPS Parallel Machine Tool (PMT) as the object of research; it mainly introduced the process of establishing the compensation strategy for this PMT. Firstly the kinematics equations on driving chain and constraint chain was established on the basis of kinematics analysis. Then according to the structural characteristics and the results of kinematics analysis, the error compensation strategy of feedback correction type with the semi-closed loop control mode was used in the error compensation for this PMT by the method of installing respectively the encoders on the each joint of parallelogram mechanism, namely the compensation way of “parallel driving and series feedback” was adopted. Finally this paper has also deduced the theoretical model of error compensation. The research results in this paper provided a theoretical basis for realizing error compensation of this PMT, and had important practical significance for improving machining precision of PMT
