Optimal multi-floor plant layout based on the mathematical programming and particle swarm optimization
In the fields of researches associated with plant layout optimization, the main goal is to minimize the costs of pipelines and pumping between connecting equipment under various constraints. However, what is the lacking of considerations in previous researches is to transform various heuristics or safety regulations into mathematical equations. For example, proper safety distances between equip...
متن کاملOptimal Process Adjustment with Considering Variable Costs for Uni-variate and Multi-variate Production Process (RESEARCH NOTE)
This paper studies a single-stage production system, two-stage production system where specification limits are designed for inspection. When quality characteristics fall below a lower threshold or above an upper threshold, a decision is made to rework or scrap the item. The target is to determine the optimum target for a process based on rework or scrap costs. In contrast to previous studies, ...
متن کاملMulti-start simulated annealing for dynamic plant layout problem
In today’s dynamic market, organizations must be adaptive to market fluctuations. In addition, studies show that material-handling cost makes up between 20 and 50 percent of the total operating cost. Therefore, this paper considers the problem of arranging and rearranging, when there are changes in product mix and demand, manufacturing facilities such that the sum of material handling and rearr...
متن کاملOptimisation of factory floor layout in a complex manufacturing process
This contribution describes the methods used in a factory floor optimization process. The manufacturing process involves approximately 140 machines and is concentrated around a group of multipurpose CNC machines. We have analysed the current state of the manufacturing system by constructing a discrete event simulation (DES) model. The factory manufactures approximately 30,000 different products...
متن کاملMulti-Floor Facility Layout Optimization Using Slicing Tree Structure
This paper presents an algorithm for solving a multi-floor facility layout problem. The most apparent difference and also the potential difficulty in a multi-floor facility layout problem, compared to a single floor facility layout problem, are the problems regarding the placement of the vertical transportation equipments (elevators), which are to be used for vertical transportation occuring wi...
