Apparatus for analysing movement and drive apparatus

Abstract

The invention relates an apparatus for analysing movement of an arrangement made of a plurality of bodies assigned to a platform, of which at least one is provided with a drive, in particular of the hexapod type or of the articulated arm type, having means for vibration analysis and/or force analysis. According to the invention, the apparatus has in a modular construction a vibration analysis module for analytically determining natural vibration modes of the bodies and/or of the platform in respect of at least one of the following variables: frequency, centre of rotation of the torsional component of the vibrations, axis of rotation of torsional vibration, displacement vector of a Cartesian vibration, amplitude ratio of the vibrations in relation to one another, and/or a force analysis module for analytically determining the acceleration forces and/or weights and/or torques, occurring on a predetermined trajectory, in respect of the bodies and/or the platform.
