New integer programming models optimize cellular manufacturing systems

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

This paper introduces four integer programming formulations for optimizing cellular manufacturing systems (CMS). The proposed models integrate part grouping, machine assignment, and operational routing decisions within a unified framework. This approach aims to minimize inter-cell and intra-cell movements by assigning consecutive operations to the same cell and machine, while also considering machine investment and operating costs. AI

IMPACT This research offers a novel mathematical framework for optimizing manufacturing processes, potentially leading to more efficient production systems.

    Designing Cellular Manufacturing Systems in the Presence of Alternative Process Plans

    arXiv:2411.15361v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In the design of cellular manufacturing systems (CMS), numerous technological and managerial decisions must be made at both the design and operational stages. The first step in designing a CMS involves grouping parts and machine…
