‘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 کاملRelax and Fix Heuristics for Simultaneous Lot Sizing and Sequencing the Permutation Flow Shops with Sequence-Dependent Setups
This paper proposes two relax and fix heuristics for the simultaneous lot sizing and sequencing problem in permutation flow shops involving sequence-dependent setups and capacity constraints. To evaluate the effectiveness of mentioned heuristics, two lower bounds are developed and compared against the optimal solution. The results of heuristics are compared with the selected lower bound .
متن کاملA Multi-Objective Mixed-Model Assembly Line Sequencing Problem With Stochastic Operation Time
In today’s competitive market, those producers who can quickly adapt themselves todiverse demands of customers are successful. Therefore, in order to satisfy these demands of market, Mixed-model assembly line (MMAL) has an increasing growth in industry. A mixed-model assembly line (MMAL) is a type of production line in which varieties of products with common base characteristics are assembled o...
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 کاملA Multi-Objective Particle Swarm Optimization for Mixed-Model Assembly Line Balancing with Different Skilled Workers
This paper presents a multi-objective Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) algorithm for worker assignment and mixed-model assembly line balancing problem when task times depend on the worker’s skill level. The objectives of this model are minimization of the number of stations (equivalent to the maximization of the weighted line efficiency), minimization of the weighted smoothness index and minim...
