An Automated Assembly Sequence Planning System
Abstract
In this paper, a methodology called ASPS (computer-aided AssemblySequence Planning System) was developed to incorporate making decisions on process planning and production planning for assembly product.Using ASPS, a planner or manufacturing engineering can determineoptimum or near optimum assembly sequence(s). The system has been tested on product a stapler and showed to increase efficiency of assembly line about 30%.
