MULTI OBJECTIVE MODEL FOR BALANCING U-TYPE ASSEMBLY LINE WITH PERMANENT AND TEMPORARY WORKERS
ABSTRACT: Assembly line
balancing is one of the most important management decisions for reducing
production costs. So far, many researches have been done in this area. In this
research, we expand the U-type line-balancing using goal programming for multi
objective model with two goals, i.e., minimized the number of temporary workers
and number of cycle time in each station. Additionally, an example to
illustrate the model, as well as some analyses is presented. Different amount
of time for temporary worker to accomplish their tasks were generated. For some
cases, the U-type assembly line is more efficient than the straight one. However, the goal 1 and goal 2 are
conflicted
