Purpose This paper aims to study a generalized type of mixed-model assembly line with
multi-manned workstations where multiple workers simultaneously perform different tasks on …

Abstract Assembly Lines (ALs) are used for mass production as they offer lots of advantages
over other production systems in terms of lead time and cost. The advent of mass …

In order to increase flexibility and reduce costs, several companies adopt mixed-model
assembly lines whose output products are variations of the same basic model with specific …

Mixed model production is the practice of assembling different and distinct models in a line
without changeovers responding to sudden demand changes for a variety of models. In this …

Mixed-model assembly lines are becoming increasingly popular due to flexibility of
producing customised products. In a mixed-model assembly line, line balancing and model …

In advanced manufacturing, optimizing mixed-model synchronous assembly lines (MMALs)
is crucial for enhancing productivity and adhering to sustainability principles, particularly in …

The study proposes an exact method based on the Benders decomposition approach to
solve the sequencing problem of the mixed-model assembly line considering feeding lines …

We consider a two-stage low-volume manufacturing system motivated by settings found in
the aerospace industry. The first stage is given by parallel mixed-model assembly lines. The …

In the car-sequencing problem of mixed-model assembly lines, a series of cars with different
model types will be put into the assembly line in a certain order considering a variety of …

In this paper, an integrated mathematical model for the balancing and sequencing problems
of a mixed-model assembly line (MMAL) is developed. The proposed model minimizes the …
