“…Fokkert;Kok (1997) comparam e analisam diferentes heurísticas para balanceamento de linhas de multimodelos e de modelos mistos, no desempenho das linhas. Khan;Day (2002) propõem uma metodologia de projeto baseada no conhecimento tanto para linhas automatizadas quanto para linhas manuais, que pode ser aplicada igualmente para linhas que montam um único produto, linhas de multimodelos ou linhas de modelos mistos. Além disso, a metodologia proposta pode ser aplicada tanto para tempos determinísticos quanto para tempos estocásticos.…”

The complexity of planning and scheduling of multi-model assembly lines, joined to the dynamic behavior of these lines and the stochastic nature of the assembly times make a simulation based approach more effective to support the line scheduling. This work uses the simulation to analyze the manpower need and allocation, in different scenarios considering the number of operators, the operator's distribution on the workstations, the use of concurrency relationship of activities and the arrival sequence of engines in the line. This study was accomplished in three engines subassembly lines in a company of the automotive sector, characterized by a variable daily demand with defined delivery date for the finished products.

“…The proposed knowledge based system was capable of proposing alternatives based on the production scenario required and was applied to a facility producing air conditioning and refrigeration units for industrial and commercial use. In [23] a knowledge based design methodology for both automated and manual assembly lines was described. The methodology addressed the assembly system selection, cycle station time determination and the configuration of workstations in an automated and generic approach.…”

“…In this regard, a number of ALB systems have been developed to handle ALB problems, instead of customizing specific algorithms to certain types of ALB problems [7]. In addition, ALB algorithms are usually expressed in mathematical terms, which may only be understood by domain experts, but not by most of the ALB practitioners in the production departments.…”

Assembly line balancing (ALB) aims at distributing those work required to assemble a product in mass or series production among a set of workstations in an assembly line. Heuristics approaches, in corporation with computer simulation, have demonstrated a number of advantages in practice. Recognizing the importance of interactions between production planners and the scheduling system, this paper discusses the design and implementation of a Web-based ALB advisor for scheduling hard disk drive assembly involving multiple criteria. With the assistance of such an ALB advisor, production engineers, who may have difficulties in understanding those sophisticated ALB heuristics, can remotely present and specify their particular ALB problems. Based on the user input, the advisor will compose a schedule based on various heuristic algorithms embedded in its library. The schedule can be manipulated directly via a graphical user interface. The advisor also generates simulation models for the user-specified ALB problems and presents the user with performance evaluation of the suggested ALB solutions.
