MATERIAL HANDLING IN FLEXIBLE MANUFACTURING SYSTEM
Journal Title: International Journal of Computer Science and Management Studies (IJCSMS) www.ijcsms.com - Year 2011, Vol 11, Issue 2
Abstract
The objective of this study is to analyze the system performance of a flexible manufacturing system cell. The study gives information on production potential of the cell by grouping common parts. To complete this, computer simulation models are developed using the SIMAN simulation language. Initially no material handling is provided to the manufacturing system to get an upper bound estimate of production output. Next, we explore the impact that an automatic guided vehicle (AGV) has on system performance with manufacturing system. The final analysis is performed in which a conveyor is implemented for the material handling. The performance result with comparison is presented in the form of confidence intervals. After examine the simulation results, we recommend to implement a conveyor system for material handling. Use of AGV in the flexible manufacturing system creates a bottleneck which causes a dramatically decrease in the production: as compare to a conveyor as the material handling system which does not limit the daily production output of the manufacturing cell.
