Stage due date planning for multistage assembly systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
Coordinating due dates of operations throughout all stages of manufacturing and assembly is a problem especially for complex product structures with uncertainties in process times. A recursive procedure is described to estimate distributions of completion times for each operation. Stage due dates are then calculated to meet speci® ed service targets. Compared with plans from existing heuristic methods, there are considerable improvements in meeting service targets and reducing costs. Simulations demonstrate that the method is eŒective for complex assemblies produced in low volumes by capital goods companies.

Particle swarm optimization for minimizing total earliness/tardiness costs of two-stage assembly flowshop scheduling problem in a batched delivery system
This paper considers a two-stage assembly flow shop scheduling problem. When all parts of each product are completed in the first stage, they are assembled into a final product on an assembly machine in the second stage. In order to reduce the delivery cost, completed products can be held until completion of some other products to be delivered in a same batch. The proposed problem addresses sch...
متن کاملA Randomized Local Search Heuristic for Lot Sizing in Multistage Assembly systems
Multistage production systems consider the production of items at more than one level. There are three general classes of such systems: (1) assembly systems where each stage requires inputs from one or more immediate predecessor stages but supplies exactly one immediate successor, (2) arborescent systems where each stage has exactly one predecessor stage but could have several immediate success...
متن کاملProduct due date assignment for complex assemblies
A method is described to assign product due dates for multistage assemblies with uncertain manufacturing and assembly process times. Earliest start times of operations are specified by a predetermined production plan and processing time distributions for operations are truncated at minimum processing times. The method systematically decomposes the complex product structures of multistage assemb...

This paper investigates the genetic based re-planning search strategy, using neural learned vibration behavior for achieving tolerance compensation of uncertainties in robotic assembly. The vibration behavior was created from complex robot assembly of cogged tube over multistage planetary speed. Complex extensive experimental investigations were conducted for the purpose of finding the optimum ...
متن کاملMulti-Objective Lead Time Control in Multistage Assembly Systems (TECHNICAL NOTE)
In this paper we develop a multi-objective model to optimally control the lead time of a multistage assembly system. The multistage assembly system is modeled as an open queueing network, whose service stations represent manufacturing or assembly operations. The arrival processes of the individual parts of the product, which should be assembled to each other in assembly stations, are assumed to...
