Introduction
Features:
• Simple light-weight mechanical structure, resulting in low energy consumption.
• Low inertial moment, high acceleration and high speed motion.
• Large reachable workspace, limited mainly by cable lengths and cable tension constraints.
• Easy reconfigurability by relocating platform connecting points and base suspending points.
