The concepts of twist generator, wrench generator and their counterparts, namely, twist annihilator and wrench annihilator, are introduced. It is shown that twist annihilators allow the elimination of idle variables in the analysis of kinematic chains with multiple loops, thereby easing the formulation of the underlying kinematic relations. As examples of applications, the input-output velocity analysis of a four bar spatial linkage and the computations Jacobians of a robotic mechanical systems pertaining either to walking machine or a multi-fingered hand, are included. For the entire collection see [Zbl 0842.00046].
