This paper presents a development of two model-based emergency tracking controllers which can be turned on when one of actuators of a system fails during motion. The system is represented by a manipulator possessing 3 degrees of freedom, which may work in horizontal or vertical planes. The control goal is to enable an end effector of a broken manipulator completing tracking a predefined task as good as possible and then get back to its rest position. Simulation results confirm good performance of the designed emergency tracking controllers.
