Computer aided dynamic analysis of a tilting table with parallel kinematics

Abstract

The paper presents the dynamic analysis of a tilting table with parallel kinematics. The dynamic analysis of the structure and the creation of the structure model will be performed with a 3D CAD software. The 3D model of the structure includes, among other things, the parameters necessary for the analysis, such as the dimensions and position of the parts, as well as the weight of the parts. During the dynamic analysis of the tilting table, the required actuator forces for the operation of the structure will be determined. Actuator forces are determined by the torque of the table’s central cardan joint in the case of the examined structure. Of course, the actuator forces depend on the installation location of the actuators, the mass of the moving parts, and the acceleration given by the displacement of the actuators.
