A Knowledge-Based System for Assembly Sequence Planning

To save time and cost in assembly process and to improve the quality of products, it is very important to choose an optimal assembly sequence. In this paper, we propose a methodology that generates an optimal assembly sequence by using various methods and the knowledge of experts. To illustrate the effectiveness of the proposed methodology, a knowledge-based system is developed. The built system is applied to the case of UBR(Unit Bath Room). The applying result showed the applicability of the developed system.
