Abstract

This paper proposes a trajectory planning and control method for heavy-duty manipulators based on inclination-displacement mapping. In this method, inclination sensors are employed to detect the excavator's orientation. By establishing a mapping relationship between joint inclination and cylinder displacement, the cylinder displacement is indirectly derived. Subsequently, considering the typical excavation operation process, the spatial trajectory of the excavator bucket is planned. The displacement of the driving cylinder is determined using kinematic inverse solutions and cubic polynomials. The cylinder displacement is then controlled using a position-velocity (PV) strategy. This method is tested on a 95-ton large excavator, and the results demonstrate several advantages, including easy installation, low maintenance requirements, smooth trajectory planning, and high tracking accuracy. These qualities make it suitable for the demands of intelligent operations in large excavators. Thus, this paper offers valuable insights for the intelligent transformation of heavy excavators.
