  • Abstract
    This paper presents a novel mobile parallel robot, which is able to carry welding and machining processes from inside the international thermonuclear experimental reactor (ITER) vacuum vessel (VV). The kinematic design of the robot has been optimized for ITER access. Kinematic analysis is given in the paper, and control algorithm is designed for water hydraulic.
