Abstract

Robots are complex mechatronics systems where several electric drives are employed to control the movement of articulated structures. In industrial environments they must perform tasks with rapidity and accuracy in order to produce goods and services with minimal production time. These procedures require the use of flexible robots which can act in a large workspace, thus subjected to important parameters variations and nonlinear dynamics effects. This paper investigates the fractional order dynamics during the evolution of trajectories of three robotic joints, considering the complete system dynamics.
