Abstract :
The paper shows that establishing the flexible multi-model welding Line (FMWL) is necessary, which is the key technology for the flexible production. In this paper, some measures for implementing the flexible welding Line for multi-model automobile were proposed from several aspects, such as process planning, switching mechanism, the robot interactive simulation, and automatic integrated control. And the modular strategy was used to achieve the production of different models.
