چکیده
This paper contains a detailed description of a thirteen machine COMAU FMS for a company in Torino, Italy. The monthly and daily problems that need to be addressed and the approaches that are suggested to operate this system efficiently are detailed. The trickier probicms and constraints are those of tool management, especially tool loading. Detailed tooling data and their analysis are also presented. The complete spectrum of operational problems addressed range from aggregate planning to detailed scheduling, including fixture and inventory management. Breakdown situations are also addressed.

Appropriate Evolutionary Algorithm for Scheduling in FMS
The diffusion of flexible manufacturing systems (FMS) has not only invigorated production systems, but has also given considerable impetus to relevant analytical fields like scheduling theory and adaptive controls. Depending on the demand of the job there can be variation in batch size. The change in the jobs depends upon the renewal rate. But this does not involve much change in the FMS setup....
متن کاملReal-time Scheduling of a Flexible Manufacturing System using a Two-phase Machine Learning Algorithm
The static and analytic scheduling approach is very difficult to follow and is not always applicable in real-time. Most of the scheduling algorithms are designed to be established in offline environment. However, we are challenged with three characteristics in real cases: First, problem data of jobs are not known in advance. Second, most of the shop’s parameters tend to be stochastic. Third, th...
متن کاملRole of batch size in scheduling optimization of flexible manufacturing system using genetic algorithm
Flexible manufacturing system (FMS) readily addresses the dynamic needs of the customers in terms of variety and quality. At present, there is a need to produce a wide range of quality products in limited time span. On-time delivery of customers’ orders is critical in make-to-order (MTO) manufacturing systems. The completion time of the orders depends on several factors including arrival rate, ...
متن کاملA Scheduling Model of Flexible Manufacturing System to Reduce Waste and Earliness/Tardiness Penalties
Nowadays, flexible manufacturing system (FMS) is introduced as a response to the competitive environment. Scheduling of FMS is more complex and more difficult than the other scheduling production systems. One of the main factors in scheduling of FMS is variable time of taking orders from customers, which leads to a sudden change in the manufacturing process. Also, some problems are created in p...
متن کاملIntegrated Process Planning and Active Scheduling in a Supply Chain-A Learnable Architecture Approach
Through the lens of supply chain management, integrating process planning decisions and scheduling plans becomes an issue of great challenge and importance. Dealing with the problem paves the way to devising operation schedules with minimum makespan; considering the flexible process sequences, it can be viewed as a fundamental tool for achieving the scheme, too. To deal with this integration, t...
