Abstract

In today’s manufacturing systems, especially in Industry 4.0, highly autonomous production cells play an important role. To reach this goal of autonomy, different technologies like industrial robots, machine tools, and automated guided vehicles (AGV) are deployed simultaneously which creates numerous challenges on various automation levels. One of those challenges regards the scheduling of all applied resources and their corresponding tasks. Combining data from a real production environment and Constraint Programming (CP-SAT), we provide a cascaded scheduling approach that plans production orders for machine tools to minimize makespan and tool changeover time while enabling the corresponding robot for robot-collaborated processes. Simultaneously, AGVs provide all production cells with the necessary material and tools. Hereby, magazine capacity for raw material as well as finished parts and tool service life are taken into account.

先进的级联调度高度自主生产单元与物料流和工具寿命的考虑使用agv

在当今的制造系统中，特别是在工业4.0中，高度自主的生产单元发挥着重要作用。为了实现这一自主目标，工业机器人、机床和自动导引车（AGV）等不同技术同时部署，这在不同的自动化水平上带来了许多挑战。其中一个挑战涉及所有应用资源及其相应任务的调度。结合来自真实生产环境的数据和约束编程（CP-SAT），我们提供了一种级联调度方法，该方法规划机床的生产订单，以最大限度地缩短制造周期和工具转换时间，同时使相应的机器人能够进行机器人协作过程。同时，AGV为所有生产单元提供必要的材料和工具。因此，考虑了原材料、成品零件和刀具使用寿命的刀库容量。

期刊介绍： ournal of Machine Engineering is a scientific journal devoted to current issues of design and manufacturing - aided by innovative computer techniques and state-of-the-art computer systems - of products which meet the demands of the current global market. It favours solutions harmonizing with the up-to-date manufacturing strategies, the quality requirements and the needs of design, planning, scheduling and production process management. The Journal'' s subject matter also covers the design and operation of high efficient, precision, process machines. The Journal is a continuator of Machine Engineering Publisher for five years. The Journal appears quarterly, with a circulation of 100 copies, with each issue devoted entirely to a different topic. The papers are carefully selected and reviewed by distinguished world famous scientists and practitioners. The authors of the publications are eminent specialists from all over the world and Poland. Journal of Machine Engineering provides the best assistance to factories and universities. It enables factories to solve their difficult problems and manufacture good products at a low cost and fast rate. It enables educators to update their teaching and scientists to deepen their knowledge and pursue their research in the right direction.
