Configuration tool for generating multi-type and multi-robot work cell layout

With the continuous increment in the installation and industrial robots in manufacturing industries, it is getting increasingly complicated for engineers to design efficient layouts for these robot work cells. This study has attempted to solve this problem by developing a configuration tool that wou...
