Abstract
A CAD-based optimal planning scheme for a spot welding task in an automobile production line is considered. After extracting the modeling data from a commercially available CAD system, both collision-free motion planning and optimal sequence planning are derived by a modified traveling salesman problem (TSP) algorithm. Graphic simulation and analysis for a set of welding points of an automobile part are used to show that the proposed planning scheme can enhance the efficiency of spot welding robots in the automobile industry.
