Modeling for Materials and Logistics Optimal System in JIT Flexible Manufacturing

Abstract:

In this paper, we propose an autonomous material and logistics optimization system model for JIT flexible jobshop. The proposed system consists of a Material Planning subsystem (MPs), a Distribution Planning subsystem (DPs) and a Logistics Control subsystem (LCs). In the proposed system, all subsystems repeat their own optimal decision making as well as exchange production data with others. This mechanism made the whole system a closed-loop information and control system for material and logistics optimization. The unified model constructed up a framework for integrating of the production management, optimal and control in JIT flexible jobshop, through feedback of static materials management information and dynamic logistics information. Unified modeling language (UML) was used as the modeling tool, and several diagrams, including a use cases diagram, a interaction diagram and a sequence diagram, were presented to illustrate the details of the proposed model.
