Sequence Dependent Scheduling Optimization on Plastic Injection Line with Tabu Search Method

In today's production conditions, it is very important for companies to produce products that meet the determined quality standards. addition of semi-finished produced in plastic injection lines with high and efficiency, aimed reduce lost time waste materials production. Since automobile headlights can be many different colors, necessary keep product at a level transition between colors made by number defective caused color errors. this study, problem single row-dependent machine amount occurs transitions line an automotive side-industry company producing discussed. Tabu Search method, which one heuristic optimization algorithms was used solve problem. solution, sequences will program were created using annual data kept department factory. The algorithm run from two machines out 18, saving 134 kg materials. It has been clarified if developed applied all department, productivity increased
