Design Analysis of an Innovative Parallel Robot for Minimally Invasive Pancreatic Surgery
Doina Pisla, Alexandru Pusca, Andrei Caprariu +4
This paper focuses on the design of a parallel robot designed for robotic assisted minimally invasive pancreatic surgery. Two alternative architectures, called ATHENA-1 and ATHENA-…
Design of an innovative robotic surgical instrument for circular stapling
Paul Tucan, Nadim Al Hajjar, Calin Vaida +7
Esophageal cancer remains a highly aggressive malignancy with low survival rates, requiring advanced surgical interventions like esophagectomy. Traditional manual techniques, inclu…
Kinematic analysis of a parallel robot for minimally invasive surgery
Calin Vaida, Bogdan Gherman, Iosif Birlescu +5
The paper presents the kinematic modelling for the coupled motion of a 6-DOF surgical parallel robot PARA-SILSROB which guides a mobile platform carrying the surgical instruments,…
Accuracy and repeatability of a parallel robot for personalised minimally invasive surgery
Doina Pisla, Paul Tucan, Damien Chablat +7
The paper presents the methodology used for accuracy and repeatability measurements of the experimental model of a parallel robot developed for surgical applications. The experimen…
