The simulation design and analysis of a Flexible Manufacturing System with Automated Guided Vehicle System
چکیده انگلیسی

This paper presents the simulation design and analysis of a Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) with an Automated Guided Vehicle system (AGVs). To maximize the operating performance of FMS with AGVs, many parameters must be considered, including the number, velocity, and dispatching rule of AGV, part-types, scheduling, and buffer sizes. Of the various critical factors, we consider the following three: (1) minimizing the congestion; (2) minimizing the vehicle utilization; and (3) maximizing the throughput. In this paper, we consider the systematic analysis methods that combine a simulation-based analytic and optimization technique that is Multi-Objective Non-Linear Programming (MONLP) and Evolution Strategy (ES). MONLP determines the design parameters of the system through multi-factorial and regression analyses. ES is used to verify each parameter for simulation-based optimization. A validation test for the two methods is conducted. This method-based approach towards design yields the correct experimental results, ensures confidence in the specification of design parameters and supports a robust framework for analysis.
