Embodiment Construction

[0021] The production building generally designated 10 is here designed for the production of vehicle transmissions and includes a plurality of work stations 12 which in turn include work tables 14 and storage containers 16, not all of which are shown here for the sake of clarity. storage container. In addition, a machine tool, such as a press 18 , is assigned to said workstation 12 .

[0022] In order to be able to operate the production plant 10 optimally in each case of changing capacity utilization, a control device (not shown) is provided. The control device receives information about the number of pieces of products to be produced or information about the number of pieces of variants of the produced product to be produced, and then forms an indication of occupation of the workstation 12 from this information.

[0023] exist figure 1 In the case shown in , the production plant 10 is only operated at a low capacity utilization. This can happen, for example, in small bat...

Abstract

A method for operating a production plant having a plurality of work stations to carry out at least one respective work step by a control system allocated to the production plant involves a control system assigning human workers or robots to work stations according to at least one criterion relating to a production requirement, wherein each worker or robot can be assigned to one or several work stations.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for operating a production plant / production plant according to the preamble of claim 1 . Background technique [0002] Production plants that use both humans and robots are usually structured in such a way that some workstations of the production plant are run by human workers and other workstations of the production plant are run by robots. In this respect, the design of the production plant is inflexible and the assignment of workstations to humans or robots is clearly defined. Therefore, the robots are usually fixedly installed at the respective workstations, which makes flexible adjustment of the production plant impossible, and the failure of individual units brings the entire plant to a standstill. Furthermore, this, together with the often also permanently installed transport systems, leads to fixed production cycles of the plant, so that the production capacity of the plant cannot be flexibly adjusted to curre...
