Abstract
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses assembly line model within the framework a production control and information computer system consisting of five basic functional areas. It describes the production control area where the problem of finding an optimum sequence of different vehicle types and options that are to be completed assembly line was solved. The relevant mathematical model is based on the daily vehicle schedule and considers assembly timing data of different vehicle types, loading of each work center and technological restrictions. The control of movements of selected parts and conveyor control are integral parts of the algorithm. The total system problem area was divided according the nature of various production, planning and control activities into the following main functional areas: (1) production planning, (2) production scheduling, (3) production monitoring and reporting, (4) production control, (5) quality control.
