Parallel robots are the systems with closed-loop chains. They have the advantage of high speed, high stiffness, accuracy, compactness, time-saving of machining, high load/weight ratio, and low moving inertia. They have potential applications in the fields of industrial robots, wire robots, motion simulators, medical equipment, haptic devices and parallel kinematic machines. This book presents the latest research in the field of parallel robotics concerning synthesis, optimum design, and applications.
