Book Synopsis Balancing and Sequencing of Assembly Lines by : Armin Scholl
Download or read book Balancing and Sequencing of Assembly Lines written by Armin Scholl and published by Physica. This book was released on 1999 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is dealt with two main decision problems which arise when flow-line production systems are installed and operated. The assembly line balancing problem consists of partitioning the work, necessary to assemble the product(s), among different stations of an assembly line. If several models of a product are jointly processed on a line, this medium-term problem is connected with the short-term problem of determining an operating sequence of the models. In Part I balancing and sequencing problems are discussed, classified, and arranged within a hierarchical planning system. In the second edition special emphasis is given to u-shaped assembly lines which are important components of modern just-in-time production systems. Part II is concerned with exact and heuristic procedures for solving those decision problems. For each problem type considered, a survey of existing procedures is given and new efficient solution methods are developed. Comprehensive numerical investigations are reported.

This book was released on 2016 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The single model assembly line is a traditional type of assembly line, which assembles only one product in a large quantity. On the other hand, the mixed model assembly line assembles different models of a product simultaneously. Therefore, it gives a chance to companies to retain the market by satisfying various demands of customers. Because of this advantage, companies are motivated to change their assembly line from the single model to the mixed model. Balancing and sequencing problems are two important challenges in the mixed model assembly line. There are a large number of studies that have focused on balancing and sequencing problems separately. However, in this thesis, we study balancing and sequencing problems of the mixed model assembly line simultaneously. A mixed integer linear programming model is proposed to solve these problems simultaneously when the assembly line has the continuous motion and when common tasks between different models of a product can be assigned to different workstations. Objectives in this thesis are minimizing the length of workstations, minimizing the stations cost, and minimizing the tasks duplication cost. A branch and bound algorithm is exploited to solve the model. Following that, the proposed model is extended to show that it can satisfy the assembly line with the synchronous configuration. At the next step, a hybrid genetic algorithm, which is a combination of the genetic algorithm and linear programming algorithm, is employed to solve the proposed model for large size problems. Finally, numerical examples are presented to show how the proposed hybrid genetic algorithm solves the proposed model effectively.

Book Synopsis Heuristic Procedures to Solve Sequencing and Scheduling Problems in Automobile Industry by :
Download or read book Heuristic Procedures to Solve Sequencing and Scheduling Problems in Automobile Industry written by and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the growing trend for greater product variety, mixed-model assembly nowadays is commonly employed in many industries, which can enable just-in-time production for a production system with high variety. Efficient production scheduling and sequencing is important to achieve the overall material supply, production, and distribution efficiency around the mixed-model assembly line. This research addresses production scheduling and sequencing on a mixed-model assembly line for products with multiple product options, considering multiple objectives with regard to material supply, manufacturing, and product distribution. This research also addresses plant assignment for a product with multiple product options as a prior step to scheduling and sequencing for a mixed-model assembly line. This dissertation is organized into three parts based on three papers. Introduction and literature review Part 1. In an automobile assembly plant many product options often need to be considered in sequencing an assembly line with which multiple objectives often need to be considered. A general heuristic procedure is developed for sequencing automobile assembly lines considering multiple options. The procedure uses the construction, swapping, and re-sequencing steps, and a limited search for sequencing automobile assembly lines considering multiple options. Part 2. In a supply chain, production scheduling and finished goods distribution have been increasingly considered in an integrated manner to achieve an overall best efficiency. This research presents a heuristic procedure to achieve an integrated consideration of production scheduling and product distribution with production smoothing for the automobile just-in-time production assembly line. A meta-heuristic procedure is also developed for improving the heuristic solution. Part 3. For a product that can be manufactured in multiple facilities, assigning orders to the facility is a common problem faced by industry considering production, material constraints, and other supply-chain related constraints. This paper addresses products with multiple product options for plant assignment with regard to multiple constraints at individual plants in order to minimize transportation costs and costs of assignment infeasibility. A series of binary- and mixed-integer programming models are presented, and a decision support tool based on optimization models is presented with a case study.

Download or read book Adaptation of Some Assembly Line Balancing Heuristics to a Mixed-Model Case written by Alberto Fernández Pérez and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Master Thesis propose to find the best heuristic solution for one of the types of Assembly Line Balancing Problem, the SALP-1, in a line that needs to produce different models of the same product (mixed-model). That objective was tried to achieve by adapting some of the best algorithms for simple lines (Boctor, Helgeson & Birnie and Bedworth & Bailey) to solve that mixed-models. To solve the problem it will be probe some rules or make some changes in the problem in order to apply those algorithms. At least the objective is to study with what algorithm and whit which changes in the problem we obtain the better results.

Book Synopsis Assembly Line Balancing under Uncertain Task Time and Demand Volatility by : Yuchen Li
Download or read book Assembly Line Balancing under Uncertain Task Time and Demand Volatility written by Yuchen Li and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-09-10 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book introduces several mathematical models in assembly line balancing based on stochastic programming and develops exact and heuristic methods to solve them. An assembly line system is a manufacturing process in which parts are added in sequence from workstation to workstation until the final assembly is produced. In an assembly line balancing problem, tasks belonging to different product models are allocated to workstations according to their processing times and precedence relationships among tasks. It incorporates two features, uncertain task times, and demand volatility, separately and simultaneously, into the conventional assembly line balancing model. A real-life case study related to the mask production during the COVID-19 pandemic is presented to illustrate the application of the proposed framework and methodology. The book is intended for graduate students who are interested in combinatorial optimizations in manufacturing with uncertain input.

This book was released on 2005 with total page 99 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mixed model assembly has been widely used in many industries. It is applied in order to effectively deal with increasing product complexity. Sequencing and resequencing on a mixed-model assembly line is also complicated by high product complexity. To improve the performance of a mixed-model assembly system and the supply chain, one can develop efficient sequencing rules to address sequencing problems, and manage product complexity to reduce its negative impact on the production system. This research addresses aspects of sequence alteration and restoration on a mixed-model assembly line for the purpose of improving the performance of a manufacturing system and its supply chain, and addresses product complexity analysis. This dissertation is organized into Parts 1, 2, and 3 based on three submitted journal papers. Part 1. On a mixed-model assembly line, sequence alteration is generally used to intentionally change the sequence to the one desired by the downstream department; and sequence restoration is generally applied to achieve sequence compliance by restoring to the original sequence that has been unintentionally changed due to unexpected reasons such as rework. Rules and methods for sequence alteration using shuffling lines or sorting lines were developed to accommodate the sequence considerations of the downstream department. A spare units system based on queuing analysis was proposed to restore the unintentionally altered sequence in order to facilitate sequenced parts delivery. A queuing model for the repairs of defective units in the spare units system was developed to estimate the number of spare units needed in this system. Part 2. Research was conducted on product complexity analysis. Data envelopment analysis (DEA) was first applied to compare product complexity related to product variety among similar products in the same market, two DEA models including their respective illustrative models considering various product complexity factors and different comparison objectives were developed. One of these models compared the product complexity factors in conjunction with sales volume. The third DEA model was developed to identify product complexity reduction opportunities by ranking various product attributes. A further incremental economic analysis considering the changes in costs and market impact by an intended complexity change was presented in order to justify a product complexity reduction opportunity identified by the DEA model. Part 3. Two extended DEA models were developed to compare the relative complexity levels of similar products specifically in automobile manufacturing companies. Some automobile product attributes that have significant cost impact on manufacturing and the supply chain were considered as inputs in the two extended DEA models. An incremental cost estimation approach was developed to estimate the specific cost change in various categories of production activities associated with a product complexity change. A computational tool was developed to accomplish the cost estimation. In each of the above stated parts, a case study was included to demonstrate how these developed rules, models, or methods could be applied at an automobile assembly plant. These case studies showed that the methodologies developed in this research were useful for better managing mixed-model assembly and product complexity in an automobile manufacturing system and supply chain.
