A new power supply system for multiaxis robots is proposed. As key components, it contains rotatable transformers placed in the joints of the robot, thus avoiding the use of movable cables. Energy transfer is realized at a frequency of about 25 kHz. A schematic representation of the new system will be offered. Investigations of the steady-state and the transient behavior were carried out. Experimental results were obtained from an experimental setup with a 20-kVA, 650-V IGBT converter.
