In the face of continuously increasing cost pressure, a wide range of product versions and shorter innovation cycles, the demand for more versatile assembly and handling systems is steadily growing. Co-operating robots represent a suitable approach for this purpose. However, reconfiguring a multi-device robot cell usually involves a certain programming effort and unfavorable down times. By integrating self-optimizing functions, the complex task of reconfiguration is substantially simplified in order to make economic use not only of the referenced co-operating robotic systems. Therefore, several self-optimizing functions for different stages of production have been developed and applied to various production tasks. The implemented functions comprise self-optimizing planning and commissioning as well as a self-optimizing joining process. Based on the experience gained from these examples, the self-optimizing functions will be similarly applicable to various cases with relatively small additional effort.
