the basic type of assembly line balancing (alb) problem is the allocation of work elements to a set of production work stations considering cycle time, precedence constraints, and assembly diagram to achieve predefined performance criteria such as line efficiency and smoothness index. in this paper, a mixed integer programming model for solving multiple product alb problems with processing time...

Bolstered by significant productivity improvement in manufacturing technology, the construction paradigm has shifted toward industrialized construction methods, such as modular construction. Modular construction has benefitted from the long term development of the manufacturing technologies and core techniques used in the assembly production lines of construction prefabrication plants. Lean pro...

Path planning for the industrial robot plays an important role in the intelligent control of robot. Tradition strategies, including model-based methods and human taught based methods, find it is difficult to control manipulator intelligently and optically. Thus, it is hard to ensure the better performance and lower energy consumption even if the same welding task was executed repeatedly. A path...
