Dynamic Cellular Manufacturing System Design for Automated FactoriesBy P. Narendra Mohan, Ch. Srinivasa Rao
Abstract: In this paper, an integrated mathematical model of the multi-period cell formation in a dynamic cellular manufacturing system (DCMS) is proposed with the aim of getting the optimal cost for it. In DCMS, the formed cells in the current period may not be optimal for the next period, so the reconfiguration of the cell is needed, thus we have a tendency to use DCMS. The paper examines the influence of …

Dynamic Cellular Manufacturing System: A ReviewBy P. Narendra Mohan, Ch. Srinivasa Rao
Abstract: Cell-formation procedures ignore any changes in demand over time caused by product redesign and uncertainties due to volume variation, part mix variation and resource unreliability till today. Nowadays for business environment product life cycles are short, demand volumes and product mix can vary frequently, in this context Cellular Manufacturing System (CMS) configuration for a period might not be an optimal or even not to be feasible for the next periods …
