Abstract
Manufacturing cells are created by grouping the parts that are produced into families. This is based on the operation required by the parts. These cells which consist of machine or workstation are then physically grouped together and dedicated to producing these part families. In this paper a mathematical mode is presented to grouping the machine parts and machine cell. The objective of the proposed model is to minimize the mean flow time and maximize the throughput. This work presents a Genetic Algorithm for the cell formation and part family.Here, the implementation procedure of GA in the CMS problem has been discussed along with the detail of algorithmic parameters used in the algorithm
