The paper presents four integer programming formulations for designing a cellular manufacturing system (CMS) at both design and operational stages. The goal is to minimize inter-cell and intra-cell movements by assigning consecutive operations to the same cell and machine, respectively. The suitability of this objective compared to others like investment costs or operating costs is discussed. Numerical examples illustrate the formulations’ workings.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
In a cellular manufacturing system, many decisions need to be made about how to design and run it. One important step is grouping parts and machines together. This paper shows four ways to do this using math problems that can be solved by computers. The goal is to make sure things move smoothly within the cells and between them. Examples are given to show how these methods work.
