Abstract To improve the productivity, the resource utilization and reduce the production cost of flexible job shops, this paper designs an improved two-layer optimization algorithm for the dual-resource scheduling optimization problem of flexible job shop considering workpiece batching. Firstly, a mathematical model is established to minimize the maximum completion time. Secondly, an improved two-layer optimization algorithm is designed: the outer layer algorithm uses an improved PSO (Particle Swarm Optimization) to solve the workpiece batching problem, and the inner layer algorithm uses an improved GA (Genetic Algorithm) to solve the dual-resource scheduling problem. Then, a rescheduling method… More >

Abstract With the rapid development of intelligent manufacturing and the changes in market demand, the current manufacturing industry presents the characteristics of multi-varieties, small batches, customization, and a short production cycle, with the whole production process having certain flexibility. In this paper, a mathematical model is established with the minimum production cycle as the optimization objective for the dual-resource batch scheduling of the flexible job shop, and an improved nested optimization algorithm is designed to solve the problem. The outer layer batch optimization problem is solved by the improved simulated annealing algorithm. The inner double resource More >
