Industrial Manufacturing

Model new manufacturing processes prior to implementation or existing ones in order to diagnose problems. Use Mathematica for analyses including pre- and post-processing of models, simulations, and results.

Stewart Platform: Analyze Parallel Manipulator

A Stewart platform is a parallel robot consisting of a surface supported by six independently actuated legs. The platform can be arbitrarily positioned and oriented in three dimensions. Applications include everything from flight simulators to precise experimental optics to machine tools.

To run this example, you'll need
