Course detail

The Special Design of Industial Robots and Manipulators

FSI-9SKRAcad. year: 2021/2022

The subject is aimed at PhD. students who have the interest in the study of Parallel Kinematical Structures (PKS) of IRaM in detail. The attention is also devoted to machine tools of unconventional constructions. There will be analysed the structure of PKS, their characteristics, advantages, disadvantages and applications in machinary.
