Abstract

ABSTRACTThe automobile manufacturing industry is undergoing a significant restructuring. Every automaker is investing heavily for adapting new manufacturing processes as well as assembly techniques which will reduce the overall operating costs while consistently maintaining the quality of the product. In general, assembly lines are being designed and developed with a goal to synchronize workers, machines, tools and components. It is important to have an optimized assembly operation sequence in order to facilitate the smooth functioning of an assembly line. This research paper will focus on developing an optimal vehicle assembly sequence based on the liaisons and precedence graphs concepts [3, 5]. In general, a liaison establishes the connectivity between different components in an assembly based on their connectivity with respect to each other. Using the existing liaisons, multiple feasible precedence graphs can be generated which in turn lead to the development of multiple feasible assembly sequences. Th...
