STUDY OF ASSEMBLY LINE DYNAMIC BALANCING BASED ON SIMULATION
An assembly line balancing method based on Genetic algorithm (GA) and visual simulation is proposed for the assembly line dynamic balancing in order to take into account more factors in addition to the implicit factors. Firstly, the assembly line virtual digital model is created based on systematic layout planning (SLP). Secondly, the GA for solving assembly line dynamic balancing is presented on the conditions that minimize the number of stations and the tasks assigned to a set of workstations with the same cycle time. In the view of assembly line visual modelling and simulation, the visual simulation based on eM-plant is adopted. This system framework and simulation process is discussed. The assembly line balancing system is developed based on the object-oriented language VC++6.0 with the access database. The gear-box assembly line case is studied by using this system. The results showed the method is valid and effective. It can be used to provide the technology support for improving the production efficiency and redesigning the assembly line for the manufacturing plant.
