Design Example: Two-Link Armature¶

oblique

This example presents a two-link parallel-actuated structure adequate for animating an object or optical filter with two degrees of freedom over a small travel. Not shown in the model are hard-wire tie rods connecting the servo horns to the connection points on the structure.

The SolidWorks model files may be found in the FlatPackExample/Two-Link-Armature folder, or may be downloaded as a single file as Two-Link-Armature.zip.
