Abstract
This paper demonstrates dexterity optimization of a three degrees of freedom (3 DOF) Delta manipulator. The parallel manipulator consists of three identical chains and is able to move on all three translational axes. In order to optimize the manipulator in term of dexterity, a floating point Genetic Algorithm (GA) global search method was applied. This algorithm intends to maximize the Global Condition Index (GCI) of the manipulator over its workspace and to propose the best design parameters such as the length of the links which result in a higher GCI and thus a better dexterity.
