Abstract

Two-sided assembly line balancing (2S-ALB) problems is practically useful in improving the production of large-sized high-volume products. Many published papers have proposed various approaches to balance this well-known ALB problem. However, little attention is given in formulating the 2S-ALB problems. In this paper, 2S-ALB is modelled with four different objective functions comprising minimization of workstations, mated- workstation, idle time and resource constraints. In different with existing model, this paper also considers resource constraint with a mathematical modelling formulation in solving the 2S- ALB problems. The modelling procedures are present for each objective functions with a simple 2S-ALB example problem. Then, the anticipated performance solution is obtained from the test problem.
