abstract = {Among the several ways adopted for the characterization of manipulator
performances is identification of the typologies of maneuvers allowed
by the manipulator kinematic arrangement. The multiplicity of configurations
corresponding to a given hand position for serial manipulators, or
to a given set of input values for fully-parallel manipulators, makes
one wonder whether a manipulator cart perform the maneuver of changing
its configuration without meeting singularities. The paper shows
that singularity-free configuration change is possible both for general-geometry
serial and fully-parallel architectures. Results are reported that
shed light on potential performances of manipulators and allow, in
perspective, a deeper exploitation of their structural peculiarities.},
