Abstract

In this paper, the reconfiguration problem of transfer machining lines is addressed. This problem appears when an existing line has to be adapted for the production of a new or modified product. The objective is to minimize the reconfiguration line cost. The compatibility constraints between old and new operations have to be taken into account. Therefore, a compromise between introducing new equipment and reusing old one is to be found. A goal programming model for this optimization problem is developed. This mathematical model minimizes the reconfiguration cost of transfer line as the primary objective and maximizes the reusability of old equipment as the second objective.
