Abstract

To obtain control path operation the Denavit and Hartenburg co-ordinate frame method was applied to reduce the number of variables associated with each joint of a four axis cylindrical robot. This requires careful development of joint transformations. It was found that alternatively an additional co-ordinate frame may be assigned to overcome imprecise development of forward kinematic transformations. Inverse kinematics may then be developed and related to motion to achieve robot programming in the tool co-ordinate frame.
