启发式方法及其在生产线平衡中的应用

本文阐述以满意解为目标的启发式方法在求解复杂管理问题中的现实意义和效果。对国际上通用的七种生产线平衡启发式方法在计算机上模拟并对结栗进行分析、比较,最后编制了HEUBAL程序。在电冰箱生产线中使用后证明是颇为有效的。

HEURISTIC METHOD AND ITS APPLICATION TO PRODUCTION LINE BALANCING PROBLEM

The essence of the heuristic approach is in the application of selective rou-itnes to reducing the sizeof problem.For example,the production problem of assembly line balancing can be treated by reducing the total system to a series of simpler line balancing problems which can be studied analytically.Another kind of reduc-iton is used in which a relatively simple rule is applied repeatedly until all deci sion is made.Heuristic models are usually based upon satisfactory solution.The software package HEUBAL has been used to balance the running line （snowflake B.Y-150） of Beijing refrigerator factory. When the average operation time is relaxed by 10% around,it is still able to raise the output by 13% or to reduce the manpower by 16% .
