The algorithm improves the coding method. Adaptive updating factor is set in position updating function to improve the convergence speed near the optimal solution. Simulation results prove the superiority and feasibility of the algorithm. Finally, according to the actual production of stamps, a production line is built in 3D simulation software platform. The production experiment of the algorithm is completed and the application value of the algorithm is verified. %U http://cea.ceaj.org/EN/10.3778/j.issn.1002-8331.1801-0080
