A Population based Metaheuristics for Optimum Design of Single Row Layout in Flexible Manufacturing System with Integrated Job shop Scheduling
Facility allocation and layout design plays a key role to achieve high revenue in current industrial sector. This paper conveys the design of single row layout in FMS in an optimum manner. The objective of single row layout problem is the allocation of the ordering of machines around the facility configuration, to reduce the total number of traversals for a part family. The clearance between the machines and material handling cost between the machines also considered in design of SR layouts. This work details the design, development and testing of Genetic Algorithm (GA), Partial Swarm Method(PSM) to solve the single row layout problems. The proposed methods validated and tested with randomly generated problem instances.
