Popis: This paper presents the novel concept of a miniaturised robotised machine-tool, Mini-RoboMach, consisting of a walking hexapod robot (WalkingHex) and a Slender Continuum Arm (SCArm). By combining the mobility of a walking robot with the positioning accuracy of a machine tool, with its 24 + 25 degrees of freedom (DoFs), camera-based calibration system, laser scanner and two end-effectors of opposed orientations, the proposed system can provide a versatile tool for in-situ work (e.g. repair) in hazardous/unreachable locations in large installations.
