Abstract
A large manipulator including an extendable folding boom. The extendable boom includes a turntable that is rotatable about a vertical axis and boom segments pivotable at folding joints about folding axes in relation to an adjacent boom segment or the turntable via respective drive assemblies. The extendable boom further includes rotary angle sensors configured to detect folding angles between adjacent boom segments or between one of the boom segments and the adjacent turntable. The extendable boom further includes an inclination sensor arranged at a last of the boom segments forming a boom tip and a computing unit configured to establish an elastic deformation of the extendable folding boom based on the detected folding angles and the inclination of the last boom segment.
