Mathematical Models for Manufacturing Systems Capacity Planning and Expansion – An Overview

Abstract:

When planning a new manufacturing system, the optimal investment in the system capacity is a major decision to make. The problem of capacity planning is not an easy because of the unpredictable character of the market demand and multi-criteria optimization character of the task. Therefore there is still no one complex methodology of the capacity planning and management. In this paper some mathematical models for capacity planning which can be used at the stage of manufacturing system design or expansion are presented.
