Abstract

The integration of process planning and scheduling(IPPS) is a crucial manufacturing strategy to optimize manufacturing resources utilization, which combines process planning and scheduling as an integrated function instead of two separated functions performing sequentially. Reconfigurable manufacturing system(RMS) is one of the latest manufacturing paradigms to meet unstable periodic market changes and environmental challenges. However, IPPS was seldom studied in context of RMS before. This paper proposed a multi objectives mixed integer linear programming model to solve IPPS problem in context of RMS, to optimize the makespan and total energy consumption in manufacturing. To be more realistic, the model considers transportation and reconfiguration factors, simultaneously meeting process planning flexibility.
