Optimally routing and scheduling tow trains for JIT-supply of mixed-model assembly lines
In recent years, more and more automobile producers adopted the supermarketconcept to enable a exible and reliable Just-in-Time (JIT) part supply of their mixed-model assembly lines. Within this concept, a supermarket is a decentralized in-house logistics area where parts are intermediately stored and then loaded on small tow trains. These tow trains travel across the shop oor on speci c routes...
متن کاملOptimally Loading Clocked Tow Trains for JIT-Supply of Mixed-Model Assembly Lines
In today's mixed-model assembly production, there are two recent trends in particular, namely increasing vertical integration and the proliferation of product variety, which more and more shift focus to an e cient just-in-time part supply. In this context, many automobile manufacturers set up decentralized logistics areas referred to as supermarkets . Here, small tow trains are loaded with part...
متن کاملJIT sequencing for mixed-model assembly lines with setups using Tabu Search
This research presents a heuristic for sequencing mixed-model production schedules for assembly lines when JIT production is an objective, and setup requirements are present. The heuristic examines a sequence and determines an objective function value based upon the parts usage rate (Miltenburg 1989) and the number of setups involved. This sequence is then altered in the hope of ® nding a bette...
متن کاملGenetic and Memetic Algorithms for Sequencing a New JIT Mixed-Model Assembly Line
This paper presents a new mathematical programming model for the bi-criteria mixed-model assembly line balancing problem in a just-in-time (JIT) production system. There is a set of criteria to judge sequences of the product mix in terms of the effective utilization of the system. The primary goal of this model is to minimize the setup cost and the stoppage assembly line cost, simultaneously. B...
متن کاملFlexibility in Lean Mixed Model Assembly Lines
The purpose of the research presented in this paper has been to characterize flexibility in lean mixed model assembly lines through exploring mechanisms used to achieve flexibility. The study combines a literature review and a multiple case study in two manufacturing companies. Scenarios of volume, mix and operation flexibility, as well as flexibility to introduce or remove products were studie...
