Synthetic fiber ropes are widely used for robots because of their advantages such as lightweight, high tensile strength and flexibility. However, there is limited information on the physical properties of synthetic fiber ropes when used for robots. This study focuses on repetitive twisting of synthetic fiber ropes and provides information for selecting them for robots based on durability. To this ...
