Abstract
The purpose of this paper is to consider the interaction among shop floor control strategies (order review/release and dispatching, ORR) and its effect on the performance of the printed circuit board manufacturing system with multiple bottleneck workstations. For that purpose, we suggest the pull from ORR strategies based on bottleneck-load and simulation tests and TOPSIS analysis are performed to compare various combinations of bottleneck-load ORR mechanisms and dispatching rule at each bottleneck workstation. An experiment is performed based on a real case in Korea and used for data from simulation test. The performance of proposed ORR strategies is improved when the strategies are combined with a suitable dispatching rule at each bottleneck workstation. The experimental results demonstrate that the interaction between the bottleneck-load ORR and the optimal combination of the dispatching rule at each bottleneck workstation is highly relevant with respect that the performance indicators have a characteristic of “lower is better”, such as average tardiness, cycle time, and WIP level.
