Balancing of parallel U-shaped assembly lines
A new hybrid assembly line design, called Parallel U-shaped Assembly Line system, is introduced and characterised along with numerical examples for the first time. Different from existing studies on U-shaped lines, we combine the advantages of two individual line configurations (namely parallel lines and U-shaped lines) and create an opportunity for assigning tasks to multi-line workstations lo...
متن کاملMixed-Model Assembly Line Balancing with Considering Reliability
This paper presents a multi-objective simulated annealing algorithm for the mixed-model assembly line balancing with stochastic processing times. Since, the stochastic task times may have effects on the bottlenecks of a system, maximizing the weighted line efficiency (equivalent to the minimizing the number of station), minimizing the weighted smoothness index and maximizing the system reliabil...
متن کامل‘BALANCING AND SEQUENCING’ VERSUS ‘ONLY BALANCING’ IN MIXED MODEL U-LINE ASSEMBLY SYSTEMS: AN ECONOMIC ANALYSIS
With the growth in customers’ demand diversification, mixed-model U-lines (MMUL) have acquired increasing importance in the area of assembly systems. There are generally two different approaches in the literature for balancing such systems. Some researchers believe that since the types of models can be very diverse, a balancing approach without simultaneously sequencing of models will not yield...
متن کاملMulti-objective balancing of Parallel Mixed-Model assembly lines by Considering Machine and Worker Constraints
Assembly line balancing has been a focus of interest to academics in operation management for the last decades. Despite diverse research works in this field, many problems still remained unsolved. Given the importance and attractiveness of the mixed product parallel lines balancing problem and the importance of the human factor in the development process and also very few studies in relation to...
