WORKING DEVICE USING PARALLEL LINK MECHANISM AND CONTROL METHOD THEREOF

A working device (1) includes a link actuation device (7) and a control device (2) for the link actuation device. The control device (2) includes: a storage unit (3) configured to store a plurality of the target positions (P); a calculation unit (4) configured to sequentially read out the respective target positions (P) stored to calculate movement amounts and movement speeds of the respective actuators (11-1 to 11-3) between the target positions (P); and a control unit (5) configured to operate the respective actuators (11-1 to 11-3) by the movement amounts and at the movement speeds of the respective actuators (11-1 to 11-3) calculated by the calculation unit (4). The control unit (5) is capable of changing acceleration and deceleration times of the actuators (11-1 to 11-3) for each of the target positions (P).
