In this book for the optimisation of assembly conveyor lines we are dealing with series part production
featured by a medium complexity degree and a medium number of individual components and assembly
technique alternatives. Modern production techniques for medium to large series products or mass
production usually involve assembly conveyor lines. They still use hand labour more or less automated.
The aim is to have monotonous and similar in type operations or such causing fatigue, stress and
production traumas, gradually replaced by automated assembly cycles, means and techniques. This
usually widely involves industrial robots and handlers. Higher productivity, lower cost and higher quality
of assembled products are usually required.
