Increasing product variety and fluctuating demand have led to the need of assembly systems that can adapt to multiple different
products as the return of investment for dedicated assembly lines is more and more difficult to achieve. In response to
this challenge, the paradigm of reconfigurable assembly systems has emerged. However, configuring and optimizing these
systems still pose challenges in the industry. This paper proposes a new simple optimization approach for the configuration
analysis and optimization of a reconfigurable multi-product assembly system in the automotive industry, using configuration
selection, task allocation, and sequencing. Its effectiveness is validated throughout three real industrial study cases in the
automotive supplier industry.
