Abstract
Synthetic fiber ropes, which are lightweight and have high tensile strength and flexibility, have attracted attention as an alternative to stainless steel wire rope.〓This study clarifies various physical characteristics of synthetic fiber ropes to design a tendon-driven mechanism. 〓This paper investigates a viscoelasticity model for Ultra High molecular weight Polyethylene (UHPE) rope and its dynamic property applied to a long distant antagonistic tendon-driven servo system. 〓We confirm that UHPE can be modeled by four element model, and obtained its transfer function of a tendon-driven servo system.〓The validity of the transfer function was confirmed by a frequency response experiment. 〓%This paper takes note of performance of synthetic fiber rope on tendon-driven servo system. 〓%We estimated a viscoelasticity of a UHPE(Ultra High Molecular Weight Polyethylene) rope by four element model and using the viscoelasticity to obtained the transfer function of a tendon-driven servo system.
