title = "On improving stiffness of cable robots",
abstract = "Stiffness of cable-driven parallel manipulators is dependent on the cable stiffnesses, cable tensions, and kinematic characteristics of the manipulator. In this paper, a general approach to stiffening this type of robot is put forward. The approach is based on two main principles: making constructive use of pulley-based force amplification, and adjusting the geometry of kinematic constraints. The approach is illustrated with an example.",
