A cable-driven parallel robot (CDPR) includes at least two sets of rotors each coupled to a respective one of at least two supports, the sets of the rotors positioned above a surface; an effector positioned at a horizontal planar location between the sets of the rotors and at a vertical location above the surface; and at least two sets of cables each coupled to a respective one of the sets of the rotors at first ends of the respective set of the cables and to the effector at second ends of the respective set of the cables. Each set of the sets of the rotors controls tension to the respective one set of the sets of the cables for moving the horizontal planar location. Each set of the sets of the rotors is vertically movable on the respective one of the supports for moving the vertical location when the sets of the rotors are vertically moved synchronously.
