Application of Generic Multi-criteria Economic Model for Line Balancing to a Hypothetical Organization Using Soft Computing Techniques
Abstract: Total Productive Manufacturing (TPM) is feasible only if the Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) of the production line meets world-class standards. In the current research, crisp and fuzzy simulation models are developed and implemented for exploring OEE parameters for a hypothetical manufacturing organization. As OEE parameters, availability, performance efficiency, and quality, in turn, depend on several other parameters, a sort of cascaded effect is generated which can effectively be modeled as …
