| Popis: | The efficient use of capital intensive Flexible Manufacturing Systems requires effective scheduling of the system. This paper considers the problems Involved in the development on assessment of schedules and proposes an heuristic simulation based approach to the production of schedules. The use of simulation ensures that the schedules are feasible and take account of the constraints of materials handling, tooling and fixtures while the proposed “look ahead” algorithm does not ensure optimal schedules the results indicate that improvements of 10-20% in makespan (lead time) are possible in comparison with the use of traditional dispatching rule based scheduling. |
