    Abstract

    Paint planning is one of the key issues in fully automatic robotic spray painting systems. Generation of the precise spray painting paths is no longer sufficient to cope with high demands concerning optimization of both the lead-time and painting quality. In this context it is the sequence of the painting tasks that affects the efficiency of painting process. This paper presents a novel idea of improving the painting process by design of a scheduler that captures the aspect of
    quality. The proposed scheduler is based on the new concept of building a Product Process Structure Tree. It represents all possible solutions, constrained by quality requirements that are defined by process technical rules. By means of the Product Process Structure Tree the scheduling problem can be formulated as the constraint satisfaction problem. It is the first time the constrain satisfaction techniques are applied in the field of automatic spray painting.
