  A Heuristic Procedure for Scheduling Packaging Lines in Process Industries
 
 
Title: A Heuristic Procedure for Scheduling Packaging Lines in Process Industries
Author: Smith-Daniels, Vicki L.
Appeared in: IIE transactions
Paging: Volume 20 (1988) nr. 3 pages 295-305
Year: 1988-09-01
Contents: Process industries produce non-differentiable products which are packaged into a variety of sizes during the final production stage. In this environment, product family changeovers are performed during an off-shift period, while item changeovers, which are shorter in duration, may be performed during a shift. A heuristic for scheduling packaging lines is presented where a family setup cost is charged for an off-shift changeover and item lot sizes are determined subject to limited capacity and setup times.
