Abstract

In order to make a production planning for the same type of jobs in the manufacturing system of batch production considering handling times, deep study is carried out on problems about the processing and handling times, the handling vehicle scheduling and the decision for jobs' transfer modes. Time models of processing and handling for the same type of batch jobs under different transfer modes are established, followed by a corresponding calculation flow chart. Meanwhile a decision-making model for transfer modes of batch jobs is formulated based on the makespan and the total number of handling vehicles simultaneously. The results illustrate that this study can select a jobs' transfer mode efficiently, arrange a precise production planning for the same type of batch jobs when considering the handling times, and schedule handling vehicles more reasonably.
