In robotics, '''Cartesian parallel manipulators''' are [[Manipulator (device)|manipulators]] that move a platform using [[Parallel manipulator|parallel]]
== Context ==
▲Cartesian parallel manipulators move a platform using [[Parallel manipulator|parallel]] connected kinematic [[Linkage (mechanical)|linkages]] (limbs) lined up with a [[Cartesian coordinate system]]<ref>{{Citation|last=Perler|first=Dominik|title=Descartes, René: Discours de la méthode pour bien conduire sa raison et chercher la vérité dans les sciences|date=2020|url=http://dx.doi.org/10.1007/978-3-476-05728-0_9538-1|work=Kindlers Literatur Lexikon (KLL)|pages=1–3|place=Stuttgart|publisher=J.B. Metzler|isbn=978-3-476-05728-0|access-date=2020-12-14}}</ref>. Multiple limbs connect the moving platform to a base. Each limb is driven by a linear [[actuator]] and the linear actuators are mutually perpendicular. By contrast, [[Cartesian coordinate robot|cartesian manipulators]] typically consist of a single [[Serial manipulator|serial]] connected kinematic linkage of mutually perpendicular linear actuators. The term `parallel' here refers to the way that the kinematic linkages are put together, it does not connote geometric parallelism, i.e. equidistant lines.
Generally, manipulators (also called '[[Robot|robots]]' or '[[Mechanism (engineering)|mechanisms]]') are mechanical devices that position and orientate objects. The position of an object in three-dimensional (3D) space can be specified by three numbers ''X, Y, Z'' known as 'coordinates.' In a [[Cartesian coordinate system|Cartesian]] [[Coordinate system#:~:text%3DIn geometry%2C a coordinate system%2Cmanifold such as Euclidean space.|coordinate system]] (named after [[René Descartes]] who introduced [[analytic geometry]], the mathematical basis for controlling manipulators) the coordinates specify distances from three mutually perpendicular reference planes. The orientation of an object in 3D can be specified by three additional numbers corresponding to the orientation [[Euler angles|angles]]. The first [[Remote manipulator| manipulators]] were developed after World War II for the [[Argonne National Laboratory]] to safely handle highly radioactive material [[Teleoperation|remotely]]. The first [[Numerical control|numerically controlled]] manipulators (NC machines) were developed by [[John T. Parsons|Parsons Corp]]. and the [[MIT Servomechanisms Laboratory]], for [[Milling (machining)|milling applications]]. These machines position a cutting tool relative to a Cartesian coordinate system using three mutually perpendicular linear actuators ([[Prismatic joint|prismatic ''P'' joints]]), with ''(PP)P'' [[Kinematic pair#:~:text%3DA kinematic pair is a%2Celements consisting of simple machines.|joint topology]]. The first [[industrial robot]],<ref>George C Devol, Programmed article transfer, US patent 2988237, June 13, 1961. </ref> [[Unimation|Unimate]], was invented in the 1950s. Its control axes correspond to a [[spherical coordinate system]], with ''RRP'' joint topology composed of two [[Revolute joint#:~:text%3DA revolute joint (also called%2Crotation along a common axis.|revolute ''R'' joints]] in series with a prismatic ''P'' joint. Most [[Industrial robot|industrial robots]] today are [[Articulated robot#:~:text%3DAn articulated robot is a%2Cof means%2C including electric motors.|articulated robots]] composed of a serial chain of revolute ''R'' joints ''RRRRRR''.

Cartesian parallel manipulators are in the intersection of two broader categories of manipulators: [[Cartesian coordinate robot|Cartesian]] and [[Parallel manipulator|parallel]]. Cartesian manipulators are driven by mutually perpendicular linear actuators. They generally have a one-to-one correspondence between the linear positions of the actuators and the ''X, Y, Z'' position coordinates of the moving platform, making them easy to control. Furthermore, Cartesian manipulators do not change the orientation of the moving platform. Most commonly, [[Cartesian coordinate robot|Cartesian manipulators]] are [[Serial manipulator|serial]]-connected; i.e., they consist of a single [[Linkage (mechanical)|kinematic linkage]] chain, i.e. the first linear actuator moves the second one and so on. On the other hand, Cartesian parallel manipulators are parallel-connected, i.e. they consist of multiple kinematic linkages. Parallel-connected manipulators have innate advantages<ref>Z. Pandilov, V.
