Production Planning and Control in Flow Shop Operations using Drum Buffer Rope Methodology: A System Dynamics Approach
نویسندگان
چکیده
This paper aims to introduce System Dynamics (SD) in applying Drum Buffer Rope (DBR) methodology of Theory of Constraints (TOC) in a three-stage flow shop system that produces a single product. To the best of our knowledge, although there are a lot of TOC applications using discrete simulation in production scheduling with DBR methodology, there are not any TOC application of DBR methodology in production scheduling using System Dynamics.

Improving for Drum_Buffer_Rope material flow management with attention to second bottlenecks and free goods in a job shop environment
Drum–Buffer–Rope is a theory of constraints production planning methodology that operates by developing a schedule for the system’s first bottleneck. The first bottleneck is the bottleneck with the highest utilization. In the theory of constraints, any job that is not processed at the first bottleneck is referred to as a free good. Free goods do not use capacity at the first bottleneck, so very...
متن کاملDynamic Drum-Buffer-Rope approach for production planning and control in capacitated flow-shop manufacturing systems
Drum-Buffer-Rope-based production planning and control (PPC) approaches provide production managers with effective tools to manage production disruptions and improve operational performance. The corner stone of these approaches is the proper selection of time-buffers which are considered as exogenously defined constant. However, the majority of real-world manufacturing systems are characterized...
متن کاملAPPLICATION OF THEORY OF CONSTRAINTS ON SCHEDULING OF DRUM-BUFFER-ROPE SYSTEM S.S.Mahapatra
The successful enterprises deliver products and services in shorter throughput time and turnover inventory as quickly as possible. Three important approaches to achieve these goals are Materials Requirements Planning (MRPI, MRPII), Just-in-Time (JIT), and Theory of Constraints (TOC). TOC seems to be a viable proposition because it does not require costly affair of system change; rather it is si...
متن کاملUsing simplified drum-buffer-rope for re-entrant flow shop scheduling in a random environment
The traditional simplified drum buffer rope (SDBR) does not consider the application of re-entrant flow shop (RFS) in a random environment which might involve variable processing times and machine breakdowns. This paper proposed a weighted layer production buffer and weighted production buffer to monitor the status of the buffer deviation when applying SDBR in a RFS with non-deterministic param...

This paper exemplifies a framework for development of multi-objective genetic algorithm based job sequencing method by taking account of multiple resource constraints. Along this, Theory of Constraints based Drum-Buffer-Rope methodology has been combined with genetic algorithm to exploit the system constraints. This paper introduces the Drum-Buffer-Rope to exploit the system constraints, which ...
