Lightweight techniques are applied increasingly often for modern machine designs in order to reduce the moving masses and therewith the energy consumption. However, as a result the stiffness of the system decreases causing undesired elastic deformations and therewith end‐effector deviations. In this work a topology optimization procedure for elastic multibody systems based on the solid isotropic material with penalization approach is presented to lower end‐effector tracking errors.
