Tool requirements planning in a flexible manufacturing system with an automatic tool transporter
We consider a tool requirements planning problem in a flexible manufacturing system with an automatic tool transporter. The problem considered here is that of determining the number of tool copies of each tool type with the objective of minimizing total tardiness of orders with distinct due dates for a given budget for tool purchase. For the problem, several heuristic algorithms are developed u...
متن کاملReliability analysis of a flexible manufacturing cell
In this study, mathematical models are developed to study and compare the operations of a fully reliable and an unreliable flexible manufacturing cell (FMC), each with a flexible machine, a loading/unloading robot, and a pallet handling system. The operation times, loading/unloading times, and material handling times by the pallet are assumed to be random. The operation of the reliable cell is ...
متن کاملTool allocation in flexible manufacturing systems with tool alternatives
In this paper, a heuristic approach for tool selection in flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) is presented. The proposed approach utilizes the ratio of tool life over tool size (L=S) for tool selection and allocation. The proposed method selects tool types with high L=S ratios by considering tool alternatives for the operations assigned to each machine. The performance of the method is demonst...
متن کاملPerformance Prediction of a Flexible Manufacturing System
The present investigation presents a stochastic model for a flexible manufacturing system consisting of flexible machine, loading/unloading robot and an automated pallethandling device. We consider unreliable flexible manufacturing cell (FMC) wherein machine and robot operate under individual as well as common cause random failures. The pallethandling system is completely reliable. The pallet o...
متن کاملDiverging Diamond Interchange Analysis – A Planning Tool
Many traffic simulation software tools, such as Vissim, SimTraffic, Corsim, Synchro, and Dynasmart have emerged over the last decade and are widely used for analyzing capacity, delay, and level of service at intersections, ramps, and along arterial/freeway segments. While these tools have shown great promise, they are expensive and the data collection and input set-up is time consuming and reso...
