In this study, a new terminal sliding mode control (TSMC) prototype robust nonlinear task space control approach is developed for 6 degree of freedom (DOF) parallel robotic manipulators in light of TSMC principle integrated with Lyapunov redesign method. Corresponding stability analysis is presented to lay a foundation for analytical understanding in generic theoretical aspects and safe operation for real systems. An illustrative example of a 6 DOF parallel robot is bench tested to validate the effectiveness of the proposed approach.
