Another way of solving collisions is to plan and rearrange operations. This can be done by changing the sequence in which operations are performed for a given robot.

If the robots are performing the same application (for example, if they are both deburring tools), reassigning operations to different robots can solve collisions as well.

When planning the sequence of operations in a multi-robot cell, consider required spacing between robots, how much room is available in the work cell, whether you need to include an additional buffer distance for safety.

Change the sequence of operations for one of the robots:

...

As you rearrange operations, the robot trajectories will be updated. Pay attention to the changes in paths as the robots move between home positions, and between operations.

Re-assign operations to different robots

If the robots are performing the same application (for example, if they are both deburring tools), reassigning operations to different robots can solve collisions.
