Order <strong>of</strong> a structural group is the number <strong>of</strong> its vacant branches.<br />
Modification: We can have three modifications for a structural group. First modification<br />
consists <strong>of</strong> revolute pairs R <strong>and</strong> their kinematic substitutes as Universal joint, U (RR) <strong>and</strong><br />
spherical joint, S (RRR). Second modification consists <strong>of</strong> both revolute R <strong>and</strong> prismatic P<br />
pairs <strong>and</strong> their kinematic substitutes as C (RP), U (RR) <strong>and</strong> S (RRR) for spatial chains. The<br />
third modification consists <strong>of</strong> screw pairs H. The number <strong>of</strong> P <strong>and</strong> H pairs in each loop cannot<br />
exceed three. Classification <strong>of</strong> higher-class structural groups for manipulators λ=6 with W=6,<br />
λ=5 W=5 <strong>and</strong> λ=3 with W=3 are given in Figure 3.1. Using this algorithm, any structural<br />
group can be described using computers.<br />
