Assembly Line Balancing in Automobile Engine Industry

Article Preview

Abstract:

In this paper, under various constraints, based on LR series engine of automobile mixed model assembly line as an example, application of MMALB theory design automobile engine assembly line. To solve the multi-objective optimization problem, we establish the mathematical model between the workstation and workstation internal load balancing two optimization objectives. And engine assembly line is dynamic simulated by using the simulation software eM-Plant. The results verify the validity and practicability of the digital simulation. Finally, the planning scheme guarantees the whole assembly line load balancing and achieves production requirements.
