Popis: | Sheet metal working remains an important industry. It is argued that, to be competitive, the complete production chain needs to be optimised. Therefore, this article focuses on the optimisation of the production plan. The sheet metal shop is configured as a two-stage flow shop with laser cutting and air bending. In the literature, theoretical production planning models can be found for both individual processes. Unfortunately, those planning models have a low applicability in sheet metal working small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) due to the fact that they only focus on one single production step while in reality the planning decisions taken at the cutting stage affect the production plan for the air bending stage. An integrated production planning methodology is proposed to overcome this problem of individual optimisation by taking into account relevant bending information already at the cutting stage. An integer program is presented, incorporating some important practical requirements: (1) the pla... |
