    Redundancy resolution options for the twin-it-romans robotic hybrid manufacturing system
    (Springer Science and Business Media B.V., 2025) Gündüz, G.M.; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Kiper, Gökhan; Schmitz, M.; Corves, B.
    The Twinnig Iztech in Robotics Manufacturing System (TWIN-IT-ROMANS) project funded by EU Horizon -Widera-2023-Access-02-01 aims to develop a hybrid manufacturing system that can perform additive and subtractive manufacturing processes and inline quality control using a robotic system. The system will incorporate a 6-degree-of-freedom robot arm and a positioner with 2-degree-of-freedom, which will operate synchronously. This manipulation system is to be designed for performing different manufacturing operations with different degrees-of-freedom requirements. In order to reveal alternative trajectory planning scenarios for this system, this paper presents an initial review of redundancy resolution approaches for kinematically redundant robotic manipulators. First, the four main approaches for redundancy resolution techniques are introduced. Then main studies on energy minimization and stiffness maximization for kinematically redundant robotic manipulators are reviewed. Similar or new approaches are planned to be generated and implemented for the redundant system for hybrid manufacturing. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2025.

    Experimental Compliance Matrix Derivation for Enhancing Trajectory Tracking of a 2-Dof High-Accelerated Over-Constrained Mechanism
    (Springer, 2022) Paksoy, Erkan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Kiper, Gökhan
    If the positioning accuracy of the end-effector of a robot has high priority, compliance characteristics of the elements of its mechanism should be considered. Due to the external loading on the robot, the dimensions of the elements change and this leads to positioning errors for the end-effector. In this paper, an experimental test setup and an experimental procedure are described to derive the compliance characteristics of a planar 2-degree-of-freedom mechanism.

    Gravity Compensation of a 2r1t Mechanism With Remote Center of Motion for Minimally Invasive Transnasal Surgery Applications [article]
    (Cambridge University Press, 2023) Aldanmaz, Ataol Behram; Ayit, Orhan; Kiper, Gökhan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    This work addresses the gravity balancing of a 2R1T (2 rotations – 1 translation) mechanism with remote center of motion. A previously developed balancing solution is modified and applied to a prototype and test results are presented. The mechanism is an endoscope holder for minimally invasive transnasal pituitary gland surgery. In this surgery, the endoscope is inserted through a nostril of the patient through a natural path to the pituitary gland. During the surgery, it is vital for the manipulator to be statically balanced so that in case of a motor failure, the patient is protected against any harmful motion of the endoscope. Additionally, static balancing takes the gravitational load from the actuators and hence facilitates the control of the mechanism. The mechanism is a 2URRR-URR type parallel manipulator with three legs. The payload mass is distributed to the legs on the sides. By using counter-masses for two links of each leg, the center of mass of each leg is lumped on the proximal link which simplifies the problem to balancing of a two degree-of-freedom inverted pendulum. The two proximal links with the lumped mass are statically balanced via springs. Dynamic simulations indicate that when the mechanism is statically balanced, generated actuator torques are reduced by 93.5%. Finally, the balancing solution is implemented on the prototype of the manipulator. The tests indicate that the manipulator is statically balanced within its task space when the actuators are disconnected. When the actuators are connected, the torque requirements decrease by about 37.8% with balancing.

    Kinematic Design of a Non-Parasitic 2r1t Parallel Mechanism With Remote Center of Motion To Be Used in Minimally Invasive Surgery Applications
    (Elsevier Ltd., 2020) Yaşır, Abdullah; Kiper, Gökhan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can
    In minimally invasive surgery applications, the use of robotic manipulators is becoming more and more common to enhance the precision of the operations and post-operative processes. Such operations are often performed through an incision port (a pivot point) on the patient's body. Since the end-effector (the handled surgical tool) move about the pivot point, the manipulator has to move about a remote center of motion. In this study, a 3-degrees-of-freedom parallel mechanism with 2R1T (R: rotation, T: translation) remote center of motion capability is presented for minimally invasive surgery applications. First, its kinematic structure is introduced. Then, its kinematic analysis is carried out by using a simplified kinematic model which consists of three intersecting planes. Then the dimensional design is done for the desired workspace and a simulation test is carried out to verify the kinematic formulations. Finally, the prototype of the final design is presented.

    Conceptual Design of a 2-Dof Planar High-Speed Industrial Parallel Manipulator
    (Springer, 2019) Uzunoğlu, Emre; Özkahya, Merve; Paksoy, Erkan; Taner, Barış; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Kiper, Gökhan
    This study focuses on conceptual design alternatives for a planar high-speed/high-precision manipulator in terms of mechanism structure, control strate-gy, and drive system selection. These concepts are investigated specifically for planar 5-bar based parallel linkages. An over-constrained 6-bar linkage with par-allelogram loops and its simply constrained version are selected for detailed de-sign. In addition, a model-based control strategy including a stiffness model is discussed for future studies. Alternative drive systems are evaluated. Finally a prototype is presented.

    Static Force Balancing of a 2r1t Parallel Manipulator With Remote Center of Motion
    (Springer Verlag, 2019) Yaşır, Abdullah; Kiper, Gökhan; Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Van der Wijk, Volkert
    Assistive robots in surgical applications should be gravity balanced due to safety considerations. This study presents a gravity balancing solution for a 3-degree-of-freedom parallel manipulator to be used as an endoscope navigation robot for transnasal minimal invasive surgery applications. The manipulator has a rather simple structure that allows individual balancing of the three legs in their respec-tive planes of motion. First, sole counter-mass balancing is investigated, but it is seen that the extra mass amount is too much. Sole spring balancing is not consid-ered as an option due to constructional complexity. A hybrid solution as a combi-nation of counter-mass and spring balancing is devised. In the proposed solution, the masses on the distal links of a leg are balanced with counter-masses so that all masses are lumped to the link connected to the base of the manipulator. Hence the problem is simplified into the balancing of a pendulum. The necessary formula-tions are derived and numerical calculations demonstrate that the hybrid balancing yields a feasible solution.

    A macro-micro mechanism design for laser cutting process
    (MATIMAREN, 2016) Dede, Mehmet İsmet Can; Kiper, Gökhan; Uzunoğlu, Emre
    This paper is organized to provide the novel approaches during the design of a machine to shorten the laser cutting process. Macro-micro manipulation concept is employed for the design of this machine both in the mechanical design and in devising the trajectory planning algorithm. Micro-mechanism design along with its calibration process are also explained since they involve novel approaches in this application domain. Trajectory planning algorithms, which are developed in this work, are discussed based on their applicability to CNC system architecture. Finally, experimental results based on a benchmark workpiece are given and the system design is discussed with respect to these results.
