Master Thesis Optimized Design of Robotic Assembly Systems

As a part of your Master thesis, you will review existing industrial solutions and the current state of research in robotic assembly systems, with a focus on multi-robot cells and the integration of special-purpose machines.

You will develop a modelling approach for special-purpose machines. These machines will be represented as kinematic structures composed of simple geometric bodies connected by joints, enabling their integration into the existing simulation framework at an abstract level.

Your area of responsibility includes the further development of the optimization framework to address higher-level system design questions. The objective is to determine an appropriate system decomposition, including the number of cells and robots allocated to each cell, as well as the integration of special-purpose machines.

Last but not least, you will create a model of a real-world use case and evaluate alternative system design configurations based on the extended framework.
