Definitions
● A
1
, A
2
, and A
3
designate the three active drive axes of the kinematic structure. They lie in
the X-Y plane with z = 0, and each has distance d
1
from the kinematic zero point (ZP).
Their zero position within the kinematic structure corresponds to the direct orientation of
the upper arm segments (length1) in the direction of the negative Z axis. Positive
displacements occur counterclockwise, as shown in the previous figure.
● G

to G

identify freely movable links.
● It is assumed that the connection of the links at the end point (EP) has a horizontal
orientation based on the parallel struts. This yields y
