Short summary
This paper deals with an elasto-static analysis of a 2-DOF spherical parallel wrist where the links and the joints are considered flexible. An FEM approach is used to analyze the problem in a series of configurations of the wrist. The results are elaborated in order to obtain continuous maps of the positioning and orientation errors over the workspace of the machine.
