Der Montageanteil der industriellen Fertigung ist groß und die Reserven im Hinblick auf die Verbesserung der Wirtschaftlichkeit aber auch bezüglich besserer Arbeitsbedingungen der Mitarbeiter sind beträchtlich. Optimierte Abläufe werden nur durch gut abgestimmte Montagebausteine…
This book consolidates the current state of knowledge on implementing cooperating robot-based systems to increase the flexibility of manufacturing systems. It is based on the concrete experiences of experts, practitioners, and engineers in implementing cooperating robot systems …
This book has been written for all those interested in flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) and other forms of computerized manufacturing systems (CMS). It deals with many aspects of the design, operation, and simulation of FMS and explains the origins of FMS.
Introduces designers to hardware and software tools necessary for planning, laying out, and building advanced robot-based manufacturing cells surveying the available technology for creating innovative machines suitable to individual needs. Considers assembly system simulation, t…
Durch die Schaffung des europaischen Binnenmarktes und die Offnung neuer Handelswege nach Osteuropa sehen sich die Unternehmen einem zunehmend barteren nationalen und internationalen Wettbewerb ausgesetzt. Die Sattigung der Markte erfordert baufige Neuentwicklungen konkurrierend…
Designing dynamic, robust, and static facility layouts are well-known approaches to cope with the stochastic dynamic facility layout problem (SDFLP). A dynamic layout includes an optimal layout in each period of the planning horizon, whereas a robust layout is a good layout over…
