Production line simulation using STPN for maintenance scheduling
نویسندگان
چکیده
As the complexity of manufacturing systems keeps escalating, the maintenance decision making becomes increasingly challenging. Simulation has become an effective way to avoid costly decisions through what-if analysis of different maintenance policies, and maintenance schedules before their actual implementation. In this paper, a new modularizedsimulationpackage formanufacturingproductionsystems has been developed using standard Stochastic Timed Petri-Nets (STPNs). By utilizing the basic functional modules, we can quickly build production lines with different configurationsandmaintenancepolicies.Amaintenancedecision support tool has also been developed in this paper, together with the simulation package, to provide offline and online maintenance decision support.

متن کاملA new approach for constraining failure probability of a critical deteriorating system Yard crane scheduling in port container terminals using genetic algorithm
In this paper, we focus on a continuously deteriorating critical equipment which its failure cannot be measured by cost criterion. For these types of systems like military systems, nuclear systems, etc it is extremely important to avoid failure during the actual operation of the system. In this paper we propose an approach which constrains failure probability to a pre-specified value. This valu...
متن کاملTechnical Note: An opportunity cost maintenance scheduling framework for a fleet of ships: A case study
The conventional method towards deriving schedule for a fleet of ships to minimize cost alone has the short-coming of not addressing the problem of operation revenue losses associated with delays during maintenance at ships dockyards. In this paper, a preventive maintenance schedule for a fleet of ships that incorporates op-portunity cost is presented. The idea is to assign a penalty cost to al...
متن کاملAdaptive policy of buffer allocation and preventive maintenance actions in unreliable production lines
The buffer allocation problem is an NP-hard combinatorial optimization problem, and it is an important design problem in manufacturing systems. The research proposed in this paper concerns a product line consisting of n unreliable machines with n − 1 buffers and a preventive maintenance policy. The focus of the research is to obtain a better trade-off between the buffer level ...
متن کاملA Reliability based Modelling and Optimization of an Integrated Production and Preventive Maintenance Activities in Flowshop Scheduling Problem
Traditional scheduling problems with the batch processing machines (BPM) assume that machines are continuously available, and no time is needed for their preventive maintenance (PM). In this paper, we study a realistic variant of flowshop scheduling which integrates flow shop batch processing machines (FBPM) and preventive maintenance for minimizing the makespan. In order to tackle the given pr...
