This study deals with line balancing of BOB T-shirt model with the help of control limit analysis and discrete event simulation of the assembly lines. In this study control limit analysis is used to measure the performance of the assembly line and used to show the bottleneck operations of the assembly line and line balancing technique improves the productivity of the sewing line of the model. ...

In this paper a process-oriented simulator for assembly lines is presented. The simulator considers mixed model lines, with stochastic task times, the possibility to have parallel stations, and to consider different scheduling sequences. The simulator is a flexible supporting tool in finding solution of the assembly line balancing problem (and the optimal sequencing problem associated to it) an...

in this paper, based on the background of cost-oriented assembly line balancing problems, a novel mathematical model for scheduling and balancing the assembly line is offered that with the combination of task sequence-dependent setup time, parallel stations and resource constraint, minimizes the operational and investment costs of assembly system. due to the complexity of the problem, the equat...
