Abstract:Assembly sequence planning (ASP) refers to taking the related constraint factors such as assembly features, assembly tools and machines into consideration to generate a low-cost feasible sequence. In this paper, a mathematical model of assembly sequence planning problem based on connectors is constructed, and a hybrid honey-bees mating optimization (HBMO) algorithm is proposed for solving this ASP problem. The proposed algorithm has two main innovative features compared to the conventional HBMO algorithm. Firs… Show more
