Abstract
A new 3-DOF translational parallel robot, named P-CUBE, is presented in this paper. This robot has decoupled motion in x, y and z axes, and employs only prismatic pairs. The structure and kinematics of the robot are studied, which shows there exist rotational redundant constraints to the moving platform. Some modified structures to avoid the overconstrained situation are also introduced. This machine is suitable for heavy load and has high rigidity, which shows its potential in industry applications
