Optimal size of kanban board in a single stage multi product system
ثبت نشده
چکیده
The aim of this paper is to define a methodology for determining the optimal size of the supermarket (between two workstations) through the optimization of the number of kanban in a kanban board. It also identifies some production parameters that greatly influence the optimal size of a kanban board. The approach chosen is the building of a simulation model of a single stage multi-product system with Arena, while OptQuest has been used for the next optimization phase. Key-Words: Supermarket pull system, kanban board, DES, simulation and optimization, data analysis.

Implementation of a Multi-triangular Kanban System in an Electronic Connector Plant
The implementation of a new Kanban system in an electronic connector plant is described in this paper. The plant was characterized by relatively long setup time of machines, high variety of products and multiple machines to multiple assembly lines in job assignment. It’s verified that the traditional Kanban system is not suitable for the plant’s production system under study. A multi-triangular...
متن کاملUsing Electromagnetism Algorithm for Determining the Number of kanbans in a Multi-stage Supply Chain System
This paper studies the multi-stage supply chain system (MSSCM) controlled by the kanban mechanism. In the kanban system, decision making is based on the number of kanbans as well as batch sizes. A kanban mechanism is employed to assist in linking different production processes in a supply chain system in order to implement the scope of just-in-time (JIT) philosophy. For a MSSCM, a mixed-integer...
متن کاملAn integrated MOGA approach to determine the Pareto-optimal kanban number and size for a JIT system
In a just-in-time (JIT) system, kanban number and size represent the inventory level of work-in-process (WIP) or purchasing parts. It is an important issue to determine the feasible kanban number and size. In this research, an integrated multiple-objective genetic algorithm (MOGA) based system is developed to determine the Pareto-optimal kanban number and size, and is applied in a JIT-oriented ...

متن کاملOptimum Aggregate Inventory for Scheduling Multi-product Single Machine System with Zero Setup Time
In this paper we adopt the common cycle approach to economic lot scheduling problem and minimize the maximum aggregate inventory. We allow the occurrence of the idle times between any two consecutive products and consider limited capital for investment in inventory. We assume the setup times are negligible. To achieve the optimal investment in inventory we first find the idle times which minimi...
