Zero offsets and geometric source errors will significantly degrade the kinematic accuracy of redundantly actuated parallel manipulators (RAPMs). To relieve the influences of these factors, this paper presents a minimal-error-model based two-step kinematic calibration methodology for this type of parallel manipulators. A novel 3-DOF spindle head with a 2UPR&2RPS topology is taken as an example to demonstrate the kinematic calibration methodology. The proposed kinematic calibration methodology includes three critical steps: (1) a set of general principles is proposed to eliminate redundant geometric source errors in the manipulator to derive a minimal error model that includes the least number of geometric source errors; (2) a sensitivity analysis is carried out using the Monte-Carlo simulation to reveal the relative impact of geometric source errors on the terminal accuracy; (3) a hierarchical identification strategy composed of a coarse identification and a fine identification is proposed, based on which a two-step calibration methodology is constructed. Finally, a set of calibration experiments is performed to verify the effectiveness of the proposed calibration methodology.
