Abstract :
In this paper we present the direct kinematics analysis of an unloading machine from a rotary hearth furnace. The industrial robot has a kinematic structure similar to that of a robot with three degrees of freedom. The direct dynamics of the system are calculated and simulated in order to predict the motion and the trajectory of the end-effector, for different unloading positions.
