본 논문은 외판원 문제(TSP: Traveling Salesman Problem)를 이용하여 로봇중심의 FMC(Flexible Manufacturing Cell)에서 반송 로봇의 작업순서를 설계하는 방법을 제시하였다. 이를 위해, 먼저 다수의 설비와 반송 로봇으로 구성된 대표적인 로봇 중심의 FMC를 가상으로 설계한 후, 실험계획법을 이용하여 다양한 조건에서의 주요 반응변수들의 인과관계를 규명하였다. 실험결과, 처리량, 반송로봇의가동률, 그리고 Buffer의 평균 대기 작업물의 수가 주요 반응변수들로 선정되었으며, 이를 기반으로 순서기반 조합최적화 문제인 TSP로 로봇 작업순서를 설계하였다. 제안한 방법과 기존의 방법을 비교하기 위해서 시뮬레이션을 수행 한 결과 제안된 TSP 방법이 기존의 방법 보다 반송 로봇의 교착 (Deadlock) 상태를 방지하여 처리량 등 주요 반응변수들 모두를 향상 시키는 결과를 가져왔다. 더불어,이 방법은 본 연구에서 제시한 FMC 뿐 아니라 반도체나 LCD(Liquid Crystal Display) 생산 공정과 같이 반송 로봇에 의해 구성되어 있는 장치 산업분야에 적용가능하다는 측면에서 큰 효과가 기대된다.

The purpose of this study is to perform parameter selection and develop a method for the condition monitoring of an LCD conveyance robot. To determine the vibration characteristics of the driving part of the robot, the gear mesh frequency (GMF) of the speed-reducing gearbox is calculated and confirmed by frequency analysis. In order to ensure reproducibility of the measured data, an appropriate working pattern is selected and experiments are carried out. For condition monitoring of the robot, a wireless measurement system is constructed and used in parameter selection, with the GMF as the center. A method involving the use of the standard deviation of the measured data and another method involving the use of multiple value of amplitude are proposed.

This paper shows the Applied Q-learning Algorithm which supports selecting the waiting position of a robot and the part serviced next in the Flexible Manufacturing Cell (FMC) that consists of one robot and various types of facilities. To verify the performance of the suggested algorithm, we design the general FMC made up of single transfer robot and multiple machines with a simulation method, and then compare the output with other control methods. As a result of the analysis, the algorithm we use improve the average processing time and total throughputs as well by increasing robot utilization, reversely, by decreasing robot waiting time. Furthermore, because of ease of use compared with other complex ways and its adoptability to real world, we expect that this method contribute to advance total FMC efficiency as well.

A glass transfer robot is used for handling LCDs in the production line of flat panel displays under clean environments. During glass transfer operations of the robot, chattering phenomenon occurs at the robot hand. This deteriorates the accuracy and repeatability of the end-effector of the robot. In this paper, we present the kinematic solution of the robot and then analyze the cause of this chattering phenomenon in view of the mechanism and servo control and propose a practical solution that can reduce the chattering significantly at the robot hand of the glass transfer robot.

The clean mobile robot for wafer transfer is AGV that carry each wafer to each equipment. It has wafer handling technology, wafer ID recognition technology, position calibration technology using vision system, and anti-vibration technology. Wafer loading/unloading working accuracy is within ${\pm}$1mm, ${\pm}$3$^{\circ}$. By application of this AGV, we can reduce the manufacturing tack time and bring cost down of equipment.

This paper introduces a clean mobile robot fur 4th generation LCD cassette, which is guided by optical sensor and position compensation using vision module. The mobile robot for LCD cassette transfer might be controlled by AGV controller which has powerful algorithms. It offers optimum routes to the destination of clean mobile robot by using dynamic dispatch algorithm and MAP data. This clean mobile robot is equipped with 4 axes fork type manipulator providing repeatability accuracy of $\pm$ 0.05mm.

In this paper, we propose angular rate computation algorithm using GPS carrier phase. A direct angylar rate masurement has not previously been available form GRS, although its availability is highly desirable for use in state feedback control. So we propose angular rate computationalgorithm which derive angular rate from the velocity of differentiated carrier phase og GPS. The proposed algorithm contains attitude determination using double-differentiated carrier phase and 2 baseline configuration whcih provide more practical applications than 3 baseline.

In this paper, the relationship between GPS code and carrier tracking performance is given. Through the error analysis and experiments, the performance of code tracking loop can be improved using narrow correlation. The performance of code tracking loop can be also improved if the better carrier tracking loop is used. On the other hand, the performance of carrier tracking loop is independent of that of code tracking loop.
