Robot control cell production system of Senju (thousand-handed) Kannon model that demonstrated optimality to the multi-product production in varying volumes for eight years2008 IEEE International Conference on Automation Science and Engineering
Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to provide a report of the world first robotized cellular production system developed by IDEC Corporation. Design/methodology/approach – The work is based on an interview with the development team of IDEC Corporation. Findings – The paper finds that the IDEC system is a success that paved a way to the future automated cellular production system that enables high‐mix, low‐volume production. Practical implications – The paper provides an up‐to‐date insight into how to automate high‐mix low‐volume production. Originality/value – The paper elaborates how a robotized cellular production system is realized.
