On the Dynamics in Decoupling Buffers in Mass Manufacturing Lines: A Stochastic Approach

Abstract: This paper analyzes the flow of the contents of interleaved buffers with continuously operating machines in a mass production line. Under this framework, the products to be manufactured advance from station to station to receive a physical–chemical transformation that adds value as they progress in the process. The existence of decoupling buffers between operations (between two consecutive workstations) is a common practice in order to alleviate the pressure that is ahead due to the lack of synchronization bet… Show more

“…In practice, there is a large number of probabilistic methods applied to the analysis of flexible manufacturing systems that try to reflect a more credible reality by incorporating uncertainty, see for example [68,69]. In particular, the design of distribution networks for PPs (green cold chain) presents a great challenge when uncertainty is included due to the large number of variables involved and their own nature.…”
