A novel method for eliminating isomorphism identification is proposed to improve synthesis efficiency and synthesize planar nonfractionated kinematic chain (KCs) automatically. This method is based on the vertex insertion of contracted graphs. First, similar edges of contracted graphs are divided into groups, in which the similar edges are found and their characteristic matrices are calculated. The edge types are divided based on whether or not isomerism occurs after vertices are inserted. Then, the vertices are inserted into contracted graphs according to the edge condition. In this process, all isomerism caused by the location and number of inserted vertices is reserved, and the property change of similar edges is checked. Lastly, the rigid subchains of remaining isomerism are distinguished. Contracted graphs with four independent loops and some of their inserted vertices are presented in appendix. A complete set of nonfractionated KCs with up to seven independent loops and three degrees of freedom is also provided. The veracity and efficiency of the method are confirmed by conducting a comparative analysis between this synthesis and other literature results.
