Description:

  • m is the mass of the link, kg
  • x is the x-coordinate of the center of mass of link, mm
  • y is the y-coordinate of the center of mass of link, mm
  • z is the z-coordinate of the center of mass of link, mm
  • Lxx,Lxy,Lxz,Lyy,Lyz,Lzz is the principal moment of inertia described in the link frame, kg·mm²
  • B: standard version, 6F: six-axis force version

Remarks:

  • Source of data: CAD design values.
  • If the inertial parameters in the center of mass frame are required, they can be calculated based on the parallel axis theorem, as stated below.

Assuming there is an output frame {i}, the center of mass frame coinciding with this coordinate system {i} is {c}, and the coordinates of the center of mass in this frame {i} are Pc=[xc,yc,zc]T, then according to the parallel axis theorem:

Ic=Lim(PcTPcI3×3PcPcT)

Where,

Li=[LxxLxyLxzLxyLyyLyzLxzLyzLzz]

Distribution and dimensions of joints

The ECO63 humanoid robotic arm has six rotating joints, each of which represents one degree of freedom. As shown in the figure below, robot joints include the shoulders (joint 1 and joint 2), elbow (joint 3), and wrists (joint 4, joint 5, and joint 6).

Workspace

The workspace of ECO63-B is a sphere with a working radius of 610 mm, in addition to the cylindrical space directly above and below the base. When determining the installation position of the robot, due considerations must be given to the cylindrical space directly above and below the robot, to avoid moving tools to this cylindrical space as much as possible. Furthermore, in actual applications, the motion ranges of all joints are as follows: joint 1: ±178°; joint 2: -178° to +135°; joint 3: -168° to +158°; joint 4: ±178°; joint 5: ±178°; joint 6: ±360°.

Motion singularities

Shoulder singularity

This robotic arm has proper configuration to avoid shoulder singularities, but when the intersection of axis 5 and axis 6 is close to the axis of joint 1, the robot approaches a shoulder singularity, and will motion significantly. The indicated point is [10.536,-46.672,120.263,-43.167,-99.112,5.313], as shown in the figure below:
