“…Resources may also correspond to a control policy, for example where they correspond to kanbans; see e.g. Di Mascolo, Frein, Dallery, and David (1990). In a kanban policy, only a limited number of parts are allowed in some portion of the system.…”

The most important models and results of the manufacturing flow line literature are described. These include the major classes of models (asynchronous, synchronous, and continuous); the major features (blocking, processing times, failures and repairs); the major properties (conservation of flow, flow rate-idle time, reversibility, and others); and the relationships among different models. Exact and approximate methods for obtaining quantitative measures of performance are also reviewed. The exact methods are appropriate for small systems. The approximate methods, which are the only means available for large systems, are generally based on decomposition, and make use of the exact methods for small systems. Extensions are briefly discussed. Directions for future research are suggested.

“…The kanban system is an information system which controls the production quantities in every process. Figure 124.1 shows a Petri nets model of the singlekanban system (Di Mascolo et al 1991) and describes the production process of three adjacent processing units. In a single kanban system, a production line could be divided into several stages and there are a fixed number of kanbans at every stage.…”

The modeling and simulation issues of the flexible manufacturing system under Just-in-Time environment is addressed in this paper. A typical flexible manufacturing system has been used as the study case, and its Petri nets model with Kanban has been presented. Since bottleneck or hunger resources in the manufacturing system usually have bad influence on the production process, more attentions were paid to the bottleneck identification and digestion in support of the proposed modeling and simulation mechanism in this paper. The machine utilization, under the premise of meeting custom needs just-in-time, is used as the main measure, while the trigger priority and the kanban numbers are two main adjusted artifices. Therewith, a large number of numerical simulations are investigated and detail discussions are proposed further. The simulation results show that the proposed Petri nets based modeling technique, as while as the bottleneck identification and digestion strategies, are feasible and effective.
