Description

This paper deals with a production scheduling problem in a two-stage hybrid flow shop. The first stage comprises one machine and the second stage comprises a number J of machines. Individual products can be assigned to only one machine at the second stage because the machines are not interchangeable. The setup is required when switching one product to another at the first stage. When the upper planning level gives the quantities of products and an available time for processing. If the quantities of products and available time for processing are given, this paper first analyzes the necessary conditions that all products can be processed within an available processing time. Second it formulates machine utility at the first stage, an initial inventory level of final products which can prevent from shortage for market demands, and the relationship between inventory levels of final products and work-in-process level. Finally we clarify that number of setup and sequencing rules will affect the manufacturing performance
