Abstract:Background: Robotics Assembly Cells (RAC) have been designed to meet the flexibility requirements demanded by today's globalized market. The objective is to manufacture a vast variety of products at a low cost, which requires equipment with a high level of flexibility, such as robots. The need to schedule a great variety of jobs in an RAC is a very relevant issue, as efficiency and productivity depend on the sequence in which jobs are scheduled. Studies around this matter have developed models with analytical … Show more
