Abstract: Flexure pivots are frequently applied in long stroke compliant mechanisms to transmit motion continuously. To improve the motion accuracy, a kind of variable thickness flexure pivot (VTFP) is proposed in this paper. A ...

Abstract: The flexure joints are proposed to replace the rigid assembly between the cross-arm and the moving carriages of dual-drive H-type gantry (DHG) for higher reliability and fine rotational alignments. In the literature, the ...
