Designing Production Flow Line using Heuristic Techniques: A Case Study at Zeal Pak Cement Factory Ltd, Hyderabad
Journal Title: International Journal of Modern Research In Engineering & Management. - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 8
Abstract
Heuristics play a vital role in our daily life specifically in production and manufacturing sectors where organizations strive to extract maximum output from their systems, in this research work flowline of a cement factory has been redesigned using Ranked Positional Weight method in order to get more efficient system. To achieve most effective flowline various efforts have been made in rearranging the tasks and workstations. Results shown that Ranked positional weight method does not guarantee an optimized flowline but it enables us to make a better understanding regarding time consumption at each task, which can be arranged in a suitable manner to provide maximum output.
