Abstract:Percentage Utilization of Machines is considered as an important production factor for manufacturing Cell Formation Problem (CFP) in Cellular Manufacturing (CM). This recently developed concept correctly emphasize ration data in context of CM. In this paper, a utilization based bi-objective mathematical model is developed, which minimizes the total machine utilization induced by bottleneck machines and number of voids. Thereafter, a new data generating algorithm is introduced. The abovementioned bi-objective C… Show more
