Dynamic Buffer Management Approach for Wine Packing Production

Abstract

Abstract:

Workinprocess (WIP) controlling can reduce production cost for enterprise, especially those flowshop job modes with capacity constraint resource (CCR). A drumbufferrope (DBR) method with dynamic buffer management approach is proposed. By setting a monitoring window on buffer as a time interval function for tracking the buffer consumption status during each monitoring window according to the frequency of WIP penetrating safety buffer and the condition of stockout, the ability of safety threshold adjusting to buffer is achieved. To verify the efficiency of the approach proposed, three experimental groups are designed. By comparing the results with traditional buffer management approach, the proposed dynamic buffer management has more than 22% improvement on WIP controlling, and the proposed approach can effectively reduce production line′s WIP inventory

Key words: flowshop, workinprocess inventory, dynamic buffer management
