We consider the scheduling problem of cyclic production in a bufferless dual-gripper robot cell processing a family of … identical parts. The objective is to find an optimal sequence of robot moves so as to maximize the long-run average throughput … rate of the cell. While there has been a considerable amount of research dealing with single-gripper robot cells, there are …

Flexible robotic cells combine the capabilities of robotic flow shops with those of flexible manufacturing systems. In an m-machine flexible cell, each part visits each machine in the same order. However, the m operations can be performed in any order, and each machine can be configured to...
