Abstract

This paper discusses the practical implementation of a flatness based control for a flexible joint robot arm. Using differential flatness theory, reference trajectories are generated for a flexible joint robot and then a tracking controller is implemented. The vibrations experienced by the robot arm are sufficiently damped and nonminimum phase behaviour is eliminated. The control shows fast transcient response as desired for flexible robots. Experimental results proves the effectiveness of the flatness based control approach.
