Zusammenfassung

Industrial assembly systems, in particular for large scale products manufactured in lot size 1, require increasing levels of flexibility and (re-)configurability to shorten response times in volatile market environments thus maintaining competitiveness. Expanding on existing approaches for flexible production systems, we introduce the organizational and technological principle of Line-less Mobile Assembly Systems (LMAS) by combining the principles of dynamic job routes and mobile resources. Beside product-station assignments and schedules, operations planning for LMAS requires the determination of favorable assembly locations on the shop floor. Consequently, we introduce a linearized multistaged cost-based decision model for LMAS operation.
