Abstract

Among previous studies regarding type synthesis of parallel mechanisms (PMs), there are relatively few works focused on 4-DOF PMs that can perform two translations and two rotations (2R2T). In fact, 2R2T PMs can be used in many fields such as in automated fiber placement, or in 5-axis machine by combing a translational workbench.
