Abstract

When different models of trucks or prefabricated houses are manufactured by a mixed-model assembly line, production efficiency usually decreases since the assembly times differ significantly among such different models. The variation of the assembly times can be leveled by installing a bypass line which processes a part of assembly operations of models with relatively longer assembly times. In this paper, a sequencing problem in the mixed-model assembly line with a bypass line is formulated and a heuristic algorithm is developed to obtain a near-optimal solution.
