Abstract

The aim of this research is to study the problem and efficiency improvement of the instrument factory in Thailand. The methods of production schedule are performed by four heuristic techniques which are Shortest Processing Time (SPT), Earliest Due Date (EDD), First Come First Serve (FCFS) and Bee algorithm (BA). All four methods aim to reduce the cost of delay shipment and time loss in manufacturing process. We apply these methods in the production process in an instrument factory. The results show that BA method is powerful in term of minimize make span and average completion time. Whereas, SPT method is the best method for finding minimum value of total late job.
