Table 1: Parallel VS serial manipulators

| Advantages | Disadvantages
--- | --- | ---
Serial | Manoeuverability | Poor precision
| Large workspace | Bends under high load
|  | Vibrate at high speed
Parallel | High stiffness | Small workspace
| Good dynamic performances |
| Precise positioning |

The generalized Stewart platforms consists of two rigid bodies (referred to as the base and the platoform) connected through six extensible legs, each with sherical joints at both ends.
