Determining Transfer Batch Sizes in Trip-Based Material Handling Systems
Trip-based material handling systems such as AGV systems or lift trucks are often designed with a given flow matrix (or from-to chart), which typically shows the number of loaded trips that the devices must perform per unit time between the workstations. A from-to chart that would result from the parts flow in a facility actually is dictated by the transfer batch size; that is, the number of pa...
متن کاملHeat Integration of Material Transfer Streams in Batch Processing Plants
Batch processes are flexible allowing the production of different products within the same facility, and suitable for producing low volume, high value-added products such as pharmaceuticals and agrochemicals. The trend towards batch processing has necessitated the development of scheduling techniques. In addition to process scheduling, heat integration has been increasingly considered for batch...
متن کاملHolonic-based Control System for Automated Material Handling Systems
In real-word manufacturing environments, finding the right job sequences and their associated schedules when resource, precedence, and timing constraints are imposed is a difficult task. For most practical problems classical scheduling easily leads to an exponential growth in the number of possible schedules. Moreover, a decision time period of hours or even minutes is too long. Good solutions ...
متن کاملBatch Sizes in Push Manufacturing
Society, POM-2001, March 30-April2, 2001, Orlando Fl. Batch Sizes in Push Manufacturing Operations Planning, Scheduling and Control Track Abstract: Isn't Push manufacturing dead and 1 the best batch size? Many manufacturing companies still use a Push system and they do so with batches of more than 1! They need to produce with little risk of late completion. To reflect this need, a new measureme...
متن کاملBATCH TRANSFERRING IN PRODUCTIONINVENTORY SYSTEMS
In most production-inventory systems, the products are transferred from the production centre to the inventory (warehouse) in subbatchs rather than one at a time. In this paper, mathematical models of such systems for both deterministic and stochastic cases of demand are developed and analysed. Comparison of these new models with the EBQ model shows a considerable loss when applying the ru...
