This paper presents a study that was conducted at Monash University College - Gippsland on the effect of a robot’s geometrical parameters on its dynamic performance. This research was undertaken in pursuit of an optimal dynamic performance of industrial robots. In this study an indicator was established to quantitatively measure the dynamic performance of a robot arm with respect to changes in the geometrical parameters. Since the dynamic behaviour of a robot’s arm is largely dependent on its inertia terms; the performance indicator was based on the Logarithmic function of the sensitivity of the inertia matrix’s eigenvalues to changes in …
