.Virtual Prototyping of a Parallel Robot actuated by Servo-Pneumatic Drives using ADAMS/ControlsWalter Kuhlbusch, Dr. Rdiger Neumann, Festo AG & Co., GermanySummaryAdvanced pneumatic drives for servo-pneumatic positioning allow for new generations of handlings and robots. Especially parallel robots actuated by servo-pneumatic drives allow the realization of very fast pick and place tasks in 3-D space. The design of those machines requires a virtual prototyping method called the mech
