Modeling and analysis of inverse kinematics and dynamics for a novel parallel manipulator are established in this article. The manipulator is a spatial mechanism, which consists of six identical kinematic chains connecting to the moving platform. Firstly, screw theory is applied to compute the degree of freedom of this manipulator. Then the inverse position is achieved based on the homogeneous coordinate transformation principle while motion law of the moving platform is given. Furthermore, the first-order influence coefficient method is employed to obtain the Jacobian matrices of the considered manipulator and the links, so do the velocities. Afterward, the rigid-body dynamics model is derived from the Lagrange formulation. To obtain the integrated inverse dynamics model, an approach for simplified flexible dynamics analysis is proposed. Finally, simulations are conducted to compute the position and driving force of this considered manipulator, which validate the new method simultaneously.
