Abstract
In this paper, the capability of a specific cable-driven parallel mechanism to interact with a variety of surfaces is investigated. This capability could be of use in for example the cleaning of large building surfaces. A method is presented to investigate the workspace for which the cables do not interfere and a surface interaction force can be generated. This method takes into account the influence of cable mass. As an example, this method is used for the design of a mechanism with a workspace conform to the dimensions of a typical building facade. The mechanism is concluded to be feasible as long as there is room to locate the pulleys at an adequate distance from the surface
