Abstract

Closed-loop regulation of a spatial cable suspended robot is performed in this paper subject to maximizing the Dynamic Load Carrying Capacity (DLCC) of the end-effector while the cable interference is avoided actively. Optimization is performed between two predefined boundaries and considering the cable interference constraint. This constraint is satisfied by designing a controller which prevents the cables’ collision. The overall formulation of the closed-loop optimal control based on Feedback linearization is derived in this paper for planning the optimal path with the highest load capacity. Then a complementary adaptive controller is designed and implemented to the main controller which is responsible for providing cable interfering avoidance. The efficiency of the designed controller for preventing the cables’ collision is shown by performing and analyzing some comparative simulations conducted on an under constrained cable robot with six cables and six DOFs. All results related to regulation, tracking and DLCC are compared between the simple optimal closed-loop system and the system which is equipped with the proposed cable interfering avoidance controller. It is proved that the planned path satisfies cable interference constraint while its DLCCs are optimized.
