On the Parallel Kinematics of the FET Stretching Press in the Stretch Forming Operations in the Manufacture of Parts with Complex Spatial Geometry

The kinematics of a stretching press mechanism of a parallel structure are investigated. The kinematic dependences aimed at setting the spatial position of the working elements of a cross-stretching press of FET type, which allow positioning its jaws at any time during the technological operations, are obtained. The forward and inverse control kinematics problems of the jaw mechanism stretching press are solved
