Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2013, Issue 1, 2013., 2013 Alternative material flow strategies in logistics networks have crucial influences on the overall performance of the networks. Material flows can follow push, pull, or hybrid systems. To get the advantages of both push and pull flows in networks, the decoupling‐point strategy is used as coordination mean.

A comparison of push and pull production controls under machine breakdown [PDF]
International Journal of Business Science and Applied Management, 2011 Production control for high-mix production remains a complex issue. Common pull system replenishment generates large works-in-process (WIPs) for each part type, especially under breakdown.

A comparative study and a proposal of a decision support system for the pull systems
Gazi Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi, 2019 Pull system is a production approach that material movement is triggered by a signal. Although the pull system is usually used as a synonym of kanban system, it has been seen that kanban does not work well in some production environments, and some pull ...

Performance Analysis of a Manufacturing Line Operated under Optimal Surplus‐Based Production Control
Mathematical Problems in Engineering, Volume 2012, Issue 1, 2012., 2012 We examine optimality and performance of a tandem manufacturing line driven by a surplus‐based decentralized production control strategy. The main objective of this type of production strategies is to guarantee that the cumulative number of produced products follows the cumulative production demand on the output of the given network.

Determination of Production Control System for Virtual Cellular Manufacturing System
Gazi Üniversitesi Fen Bilimleri Dergisi, 2018 Virtual cellular manufacturing system (VCMS) allows production system to accept a new type of product and copes with fluctuations in demand. Therefore, it offers opportunities for manufacturing firms by designing the cells without changing the layout of ...

Work in process level definition: a method based on computer simulation and electre tri
Production, 2014 This paper proposes a method for defining the levels of work in progress (WIP) in productive environments managed by constant work in process (CONWIP) policies. The proposed method combines the approaches of Computer Simulation and Electre TRI to support
