Abstract
In this paper, an effective use of Geometric Gantt Chart (GGC) is proposed where GGC is a synthesized chart of Gantt chart on job-shop process and operation diagram on Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) which was proposed by one of the authors. The method proposed here is: (1) planning successively the loci of the vehicles and the jobs, (2) evaluating and improving the carriage efficiency of the vehicles and (3) repeating these process. It is confirmed that the proposed method is effective for production systems with AGV to make the time required shorter than the conventional ways.
