Abstract
A multi-robotic U-shaped disassembly line, a method for disassembling components on the multi-robotic U-shaped disassembly line, and a non-transitory computer readable medium that cause one or more processors to perform the method for disassembling components on the multi-robotic U-shaped disassembly line are provided. The multi-robotic U-shaped disassembly line uses multiple robots, assigned to multiple workstations to perform disassembly tasks without precedence and conflict relationships, so that different types of end-of-life products can be disassembled. A mathematical model is established to maximize the disassembly profit and minimize the smoothness index for the multi-robotic U-shaped disassembly line. An Improved Multi-objective Discrete Brainstorming Optimization (IMDBO) algorithm is utilized to identify improvements for the multi-robotic U-shaped disassembly line.
