Robot Manipulator
1. Manipulator is also known as robotic arm.
2. The arm is made up of a finite number of
individual rigid segments.
3. Each rigid segment is called as a Link.
4. Links are connected to each other by joints.
5. Links move with respect to its joint.

Types of Joints
Joints are of two types
1. Linear joint – links move in linear fashion
with respect to its joint when actuated.
2. Rotary joint – links move in rotary fashion
with respect to its joint when actuated.

Degrees of Freedom
1. Degrees of freedom (DOF) is defined as the
ability of a joint to produce linear or rotary
movement when actuated.
2. Number of DOF for a robot is equal to the
number of joint axes in the robotic arm.
8
Lower Pair Joints
1. A lower pair joint is the joint in which two
contacting surfaces can slide over with one
another in rotary or linear manner.
2. They are of six types
a) Revolute joint – 1 DOF
b) Prismatic joint – 1 DOF
c) Screw joint – 1 DOF
d) Cylindrical joint – 2 DOF
e) Planar joint – 3 DOF
f) Spherical joint – 3 DOF

Robot’s Work Volume
1. The three dimensional space around the
robot where it can sweep its wrist end within
the points of maximum and minimum reach
is called as Robot’s work Volume.
2. Maximum Reach is the point where the wrist
end can go as far as possible from its base.
3. Minimum reach is the point where the wrist
end can go as close as possible to its base.

Manipulator Kinematics
1. Kinematics deals with the study of motion
without considering the forces acting on the
robot structure.
2. Forward Kinematics
Required position and orientation is determined
from a given set of joint angles.
3. Inverse Kinematics
Joint angles of all joints in the arm are
determined from the given position and
orientation.
39
Translation
Translation is the linear displacement
made by a point along a straight line about
x, y or z axis.
Rotation
Rotation is the angular displacement
made by a point about x, y or z axis.

acting on the robot structure while it is in
action.
2. Lagrange – Euler equation is formulated
based on the kinetic and potential energies
of the system.
