Abstract

The objective of this research work was to study the performance of fixed-position layouts when working with different tools. We developed a computational model to obtain two performance indicators, the distance traveled and the training costs of employees. A Simulated Annealing algorithm was specifically developed and embedded in the developed model to define the best types of tools that minimize the total distance traveled. The results indicate that it is statistically advantageous to group different types of tools in carts, not only to reduce displacement but also to reduce the costs for training employees. Moreover, increasing the number of working centers, in most cases, contributes to a reduction in the distance traveled. There is no evidence that training costs increase as the number of components increases, and it is observed that the number of components has a negative influence on the performance.

最大限度地减少员工在固定位置布局中通过工具聚类的行走
这项研究工作的目的是研究在使用不同工具时固定位置布局的性能。我们开发了一个计算模型来获得两个绩效指标,即旅行距离和员工的培训成本。专门开发了模拟退火算法,并将其嵌入到开发的模型中,以定义最大限度地减少总行程的最佳工具类型。结果表明,将不同类型的工具放在推车中分组在统计上是有利的,不仅可以减少位移,还可以降低培训员工的成本。此外,在大多数情况下,增加工作中心的数量有助于缩短行程。没有证据表明培训成本会随着组件数量的增加而增加,而且可以观察到组件数量对性能有负面影响。
