Method for Operating Cell Based Mobility Production System
An embodiment method of operating a cell-based mobility production system for producing various types of mobilities includes assigning works required in each cell of a plurality of cells connected in series or in parallel that vehicle bodies need to go through based on the type of the mobility to be produced, determining a feeding order of the vehicle bodies based on the assigned works, and reassigning the works required in each cell that the vehicle bodies to be fed need to go through based on the determined feeding order, wherein each of assigning the works, determining the feeding order, and reassigning the works is performed by a processor.
