Abstract
Abstract Cable-driven robots are characterized by a large workspace, high speed and load-to-weight ratio, providing a new technology approach for large-scale autonomous 3D construction of lunar surface shelters. A novel deployable cable-driven construction 3D printer (CDCP) is developed in this study. Guiding pulleys and cable sagging are considered and modeled to improve the accuracy of the system. A fuzzy adaptive differential evolution PID (FDEPID) control is proposed to reduce end-effector motion errors in Cartesian space and thus improve printing quality and stability. Concentric and zigzag infill strategies are compared to optimize printing efficiency and infill effectiveness in path planning. Finally, experiments are carried out to validate the proposed FDEPID control and path planning strategies which demonstrate the great potential of the developed cable-driven printer in the construction of lunar architecture.
