  Pick-and-place operations are non-value-added activities but essential in many industrial processes. Some of these operations must be performed by dual-arm robots, which represent new challenges in terms of collision-avoidance due to the use of a shared workspace. This work addresses these two issues by proposing a Task and Motion Architecture (TMA) designed to optimize pick-and-place tasks, ensuring efficient and safe operation through collision-free movements.

  This paper focuses on optimising pick-and-place tasks performed by a dual-arm collaborative robot in a specific shoe manufacturing industry environment. The robot must identify the pieces of a shoe placed on a tray, pick them up, and place them in a shoe mold for further processing. The shoe pieces arrive on the tray in random positions and angles and can be picked up in a different order. Optimising these tasks could increase the assembly speed of each unit and improve shoe production.

  This article considers the problem of optimizing the task sequences carried out by a dual-arm manipulator robot in a footwear production setting. The robot has to identify the pieces of a shoe put in a tray and pick-and-place them in a shoe mould for further processing. The shoe pieces arrive on a tray in random positions (patterns) and can be picked up in different order.
