Abstract
Parallel robots demonstrated their potential in applications with the needs for high dynamic trajectories in recent years [1]. In contrast to serial robots they meet the demands for higher accelerations at constant precision due to their fixed drives and large structural stiffness. On the other hand higher accelerations increase the risk of severe vibration of the structural parts. Therefore smart structures technology is introduced in parallel robotics for a further enhancement of the features of parallel robots. In consequence, fundamental investigations regarding adaptive mechanical components and adaptive systems are carried out in order to extend the application range of parallel robots. The development of specific active components being able to reduce the vibrations are investigated within the field of smart structures for parallel robots and are elucidated in the article. Manufacturing aspects and design principles are addressed.
