Abstract

This paper presents a general method to identify the geometric parameters of serial robots. The robot location and the tool location parameters are taken into account. Experimental results are applied on a six degree of freedom robot of cylindrical type. The measurement of the coordinates of the position of the tool is carried out by means of two theodolites.
