Abstract
Tracking sequences of predefined open and closed paths is of crucial interest for applications like laser cutting and similar production processes. These distinct paths are connected by non-productive, four times continuously differentiable trajectories, which also account for the overall process time. Heuristic methods are applied in order to find a proper sequencing of the open and closed path and thereby minimize the overall process time subject to constraints given by the system limits. To this end the exact traversing times of the non-productive linking trajectories are computed, which also have to be time optimal subject to the system limits. Finally two heuristic algorithms are presented and compared with respect to solution quality and calculation time using randomly generated problems.
