Current techniques for assembly line balancing / by Terry B. Kluge. by Kluge, Terry B. Subjects Assembly-line balancing -- Mathematical models   Performance   MSEM Thesis. Description:  iv, 49 leaves : ill. ; 29 cm. Contents:  Introduction -- Precendence and assignment -- Balancing the line -- Cost of the balance system -- Summary and conculsions. This paper describes the basic considerations required to generate and manage an assembly line balance within a manufacturing facility. The problem of balancing an assembly line is observed in the form of a deterministic line balancing method. The purpose is to search academically and experientially for improvement in the process of balancing production assembly lines. The assembly line balance concepts are discussed in a predetermined hierarchy of importance as realized from the author’s experience with, and analysis of manufacturing organizations. The suggestions throughout the study are intended to provide management personnel with a sense of self-imposed objectives and perspective on the proper evaluation of the whole system and its components. Methods, diagramming, and modeling are inclusive essentials to support this research. Some theoretical models (algorithms) will provide a solution which does not necessarily make it practical for answering the problem because of cost, storage, and time constraints. Conversely, there are models (heuristics) that solve problems short of optimal results and thus begin to lose the practical use of their application. The individual theories tend to fall short of sufficiently addressing practicality toward achieving solutions. The techniques that have utilized algorithms and heuristics together are demonstrating a positive step in the endeavor to gain practical results from theoretical models.   Copy/Holding information Location Collection Call No. Status   Walter Schroeder Library Master's Theses AC805 .K58 1981 Available Add Copy to MyList Format: HTMLPlain textDelimited Subject:   Email to:
