Abstract

SUMMARY The optimal machining speeds to be utilized on the multiple stages of a flow-type automated manufacturing system were analysed to achieve the maximum efficiency for single-product and multi-product production. The optimal product-mix where the time available to the manufacturing system is limited was also determined. Based on the analytical results, the optimizing algorithm was developed to select the optimal product items in the limited time and to determine the optimal machining speeds on the multiple stages of the manufacturing system. Numerical examples were given to show the effectiveness of this algorithm.
