Productivity Improvement through Line Balancing by Using Simulation Modeling
The typical problems facing garment manufacturers are long production lead time, bottlenecking, and low productivity. The most critical phase of garment manufacturing is the sewing phase, as it generally involves a number of operations or for the simple reason that it’s labor intensive. In assembly line balancing, allocation of jobs to machines is based on the objective of minimizing the workfl...
متن کاملA classification of assembly line balancing problems
Assembly lines are special flow-line production systems which are of great importance in the industrial production of high quantity standardized commodities. Recently, assembly lines even gained importance in low volume production of customized products (mass-customization). Due to high capital requirements when installing or redesigning a line, its configuration planning is of great relevance ...
متن کاملSolving Sequencing Problems in Spreadsheets
Suppose that we wish to solve such sequencing problems as the flow shop scheduling problem or the traveling salesperson problem. This paper reports computational experiments that shed light on how large a problem we might be able to solve, assuming that our work is done using a spreadsheet-based approach and the conventional hardware and software available to today's undergraduate student: a la...
متن کاملOn-line Load Balancing
The setup for our problem consists of n servers that must complete a set of tasks. Each task can be handled only by a subset of the servers, requires a diierent level of service, and once assigned can not be reassigned. We make the natural assumption that the level of service is known at arrival time, but that the duration of service is not. The on-line load balancing problem is to assign each ...
متن کاملAssembly line balancing to minimize balancing loss and system loss
Assembly Line production is one of the widely used basic principles in production system. The problem of Assembly Line Balancing deals with the distribution of activities among the workstations so that there will be maximum utilization of human resources and facilities without disturbing the work sequence. Research works reported in the literature mainly deals with minimization of idle time i.e...
