Abstract
A delta robot with three degrees of freedom, having been well studied over the past 40 years, is one of the most popular parallel mechanisms. Nowadays, an urgent task is to study the properties of various modifications of this mechanism. The article considers a delta robot with four degrees of freedom, in which one of the kinematic chains with a parallelogram is divided into two, allowing the output link to have an additional rotational degree of freedom. To maximize the working area and minimize the cost of modification the optimization of the robot design was performed. The problem of maximizing a cubic workspace has been solved.
