Popis: To enhance the excavator performance considering the digging force and boom lift force under typical working conditions, this paper aims to solve the complex multiobjective optimization of the excavator by proposing a new knowledge-based method. The digging force at multiple key points is utilized to characterize the excavator’s performance during the working process. Then, a new optimization model is developed to address the imbalanced optimization quality among subobjectives obtained from the ordinary linear weighted model. The new model incorporates the loss degree relative to the optimal solution of each subobjective, aiming to achieve a more balanced optimization. Knowledge engineering is integrated into the optimization process to improve the optimization quality, utilizing a knowledge base incorporating seven different types of knowledge to store and reuse the information related to optimization. Furthermore, a knowledge-based multiobjective algorithm is proposed to perform the knowledge-guided optimization. Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed knowledge-based method outperforms existing methods, resulting in an average increase of 15.1% in subobjective values.
