This paper describes a novel approach to adaptive manufacturing in the context of small batch production and customization. It focuses on integrating task-level planning and reasoning with reinforcement learning (RL) in the SkiROS2 skill-based robot control platform. This integration enhances the efficiency and adaptability of robotic systems in manufacturing, enabling them to adjust to task variations and learn from interaction data. The paper highlights the architecture of SkiROS2, particularly its world model, skill libraries, and task management. It demonstrates how combining RL with robotic manipulators can learn and improve the execution of industrial tasks. It advocates a multi-objective learning model that eases the learning problem design. The approach can incorporate user priors or previous experiences to accelerate learning and increase safety.
