DLR's torque-controlled light weight robot III-are we reaching the technological limits now?
Abstract
A third generation of torque-controlled light weight robots has been developed in DLR's robotics and mechatronics lab which is based on all the experiences that have been had with the first two generations. It aims at reaching the limits of what seems achievable with present day technologies not only with respect to light-weight, but also with respect to minimal power consumption and losses. One of the main gaps we tried to close in version III was the development of a new, robot-dedicated high energy motor designed with the best available techniques of concurrent engineering, and the renewed efforts to save weight in the links by using ultralight carbon fibres.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
