Modern Stewart Platform
Today I decided to build a very special mechanism called the Stewart platform. This mechanism caught my attention when I first started the course Foundations of Robot Motion, which is posted by Northwestern University.
By calculating the mobility or DOF of this system, Grubler's formula tells us that the Stewart platform has 6 degrees of freedom. The top platform can be moved with all 6 degrees of freedom of a rigid body. There are limits to the range of motion, of course, but these limits do not reduce the number of degrees of freedom, which is unique.
Thanks to SOLIDWORKS' Inspection workshop and PhotoView360 for the realistic visualization of the 3D experience.

Please, if you need more information about the model do not hesitate to contact us here on GrabCAD or on [email protected]
ENJOY.
