A sliding-mode controller is proposed for the simultaneous position and force control of constrained robot manipulators with parametric uncertainties. Based on this controller, the trajectories of the closed-loop system can reach a stable sliding surface in finite time. Under this condition, the asymptotic convergence of the motion error and force error can be successfully ensured with improved results compared to previous studies
