title = "Weld reallocation in an automotive robotic line due to robots' failures",
abstract = "Modern manufacturers face challenged tasks in bringing a complex manufacturing environment into high performance. In this paper the considered challenge is to develop a weld re-allocation strategy in case of robot failures, while minimizing the influence on the throughput rate. This problem is common in automobile robotic assembly lines, and inspite of the large body of literature dealing with related problems, it has not been explicitly addressed previously. A Mixed Integer Programming (MIP) model is formulated for two different cases and a demonstrative example is presented.",
