TOC/DBR based production planning and control in a manufacturing system with multiple system bottlenecks

Zailin Guan, Yizhong Peng, Xiaoyue Yang, Xinyu Shao

Abstract

Bottleneck limits the throughput of a system, and multiple bottlenecks make the system harder to plan and control. In this paper, we propose a TOC/DBR based method for production planning and control when multiple bottlenecks exist. Especially, an algorithm for bottleneck scheduling with setup time is presented, and some simulation study has been carried out in an electronics manufacturing enterprise to validate its effect.
