Applied Technology in Assembly Line Balancing Based on Genetic Algorithm and Simulation

Article Preview

Abstract:

For the assembly line balancing problem, the purpose of adopting genetic algorithm is to balance the average operation time of each work-station. In this paper, we elaborate the main factors that affect the genetic algorithm. Then evaluation functions are brought in the study to evaluate the simulation model based on eM-Plant. Finally the feasibility of this applied technology is verified by the example.
