Integration of a production efficiency tool with a general robot task modeling approach

摘要

Although an industrial robot represents a higher class of machine, It is a part of a production system. The robot, regardless of its own complexity, can be represented by a set of actions that leads Itself towards the achievement of production goals. In the present paper the robot actions will be modeled as a production system in order to manage and monitoring its actions toward a production target. This will allow an easier integration of the robot within the production process, as required by the new paradigms for the factories of the future.
