To optimize the three objectives of efficiency, energy consumption and impacts at the same time, a multi-objective trajectory planning model was proposed based on an improved SSA. Firstly, the artificial potential field method (APF) was used for path planning to obtain the shortest and collision-free path of the manipulator grasping the materials, and the key motion sequence was extracted to establish a multi-objective function. Then, aiming at the problems of multi-objective salp swarm algorithm (MSSA), such as poor diversity of initial population, easy to fall into local optimum and slow convergence in solution set space, an improved algorithm namely logistic-sine multi-objective salp swarm algorithm(LMSSA)was proposed. The algorithm combined logistic-sine chaotic mapping, pinhole imaging learning strategy and golden sine development strategy to optimize the control nodes of the seventh-order B-spline curve and complete the multi-objective motion trajectory planning of the robotic arms. Finally, the trajectory planning model was applied to the actual grasping tasks of the manipulator UR16e by building MATLAB-CoppeliaSim-UR16e experimental platform. Experimental results show that based on LMSSA, the manipulator motion planning method realizes the accurate, efficient and energy-saving motion trajectory planning of the manipulator, and is successfully applied to the actual operation scenes.
