Simulation-based Benchmarking of Production Control Approaches for Complex Manufacturing Systems
نویسنده
چکیده
In this paper, we describe benchmarking efforts for production control approaches applied to complex manufacturing systems. Complex manufacturing systems are characterized by a large number of products, an over time changing product mix, sequence-dependent set-up times, unrelated parallel machines, a mix of different process types and internal and external disturbances. In order to ensure comparison possibilities among different production control approaches, we suggest to use a simulation test-bed and a software architecture that allows for plug in of arbitrary production control software. We discuss different application areas, the advantages and also the limitations of the suggested approach. Copyright © 2004 IFAC

Computer numerical control (CNC) machine tools are automated devices capable of generating complicated and intricate product shapes in shorter time. Selection of the best CNC machine tool is a critical, complex and time-consuming task due to availability of a wide range of alternatives and conflicting nature of several evaluation criteria. Although, the past researchers had attempted to select ...
متن کاملMonte Carlo Simulation to Compare Markovian and Neural Network Models for Reliability Assessment in Multiple AGV Manufacturing System
We compare two approaches for a Markovian model in flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs) using Monte Carlo simulation. The model which is a development of Fazlollahtabar and Saidi-Mehrabad (2013), considers two features of automated flexible manufacturing systems equipped with automated guided vehicle (AGV) namely, the reliability of machines and the reliability of AGVs in a multiple AGV jobsho...
