Determining the throughput of a CONWIP system using adjusted ARM
Journal of Manufacturing Technology Management, 2011PurposeThe purpose of this paper is to propose an adjusted approximate regenerative model (ARM) for a constant‐work‐in‐process (CONWIP)‐based production system that solves the problem of deciding the number of intermediate bulk container in a pharmaceutical company to hold the work in process.Design/methodology/approachThe problem was modeled as a ...

Parallel kanban-CONWIP for production system with rework entrance
International Journal of Manufacturing Research, 2013Parallel kanban-constant work in process (WIP) (CONWIP) (PKC) integrates kanban and CONWIP systems to regulate separately production of high- and low-demand items. This paper studies the performance of PKC variants under a production environment that requires the entrance of rework parts. A case study was performed at an electronics assembly plant with

Analysis of production control systems kanban and CONWIP
International Journal of Production Research, 1996In this paper we describe and classify different pull production systems. The production control systems kanban and CONWIP are then analysed with respect to production rate and average W1P. We examine single product flow lines with exponential service time distributions and unlimited demand at the final buffer (saturated lines).

The basic idea behind a hybrid Kanban/CONWIP control is to combine the decentralized WIP control from Kanban with the centralized WIP control from CONWIP. This method for controlling production was developed and evaluated in simulation studies by Bonvik, Couch and Gershwin [Bonv-97*]. In simulation studies with comparable WIP levels the method achieved

A simulation study of conwip versus MRP at Westinghouse
Computers & Industrial Engineering, 1994Abstract The thrust of this research is the comparison of the constant work in process (CONWIP) order release strategy versus a typical MRP order release strategy and the validation of a CONWIP model in an actual plant environment. The Westinghouse Electric-College Station, Texas Plant served as a test facility.

Generic Routings for ConWip Sizing in a Multi-product Environment
2018In a vulnerable, uncertain, complex, and ambiguous environment, ConWip provides a sustainable, effective and adaptive production control system for manufacturers. The present paper deals with the key questions related to the implementation of ConWip in a high product mix and/or high routing mix environment. To respond to this challenge, generic routing

CONWIP ASSEMBLY WITH DETERMINISTIC PROCESSING AND RANDOM OUTAGES
IIE Transactions, 1992We develop structural results and an approximation for the throughput of an assembly system fed by multi-station fabrication lines where releases are governed by the CONWIP protocol and all machines have deterministic processing times but are subject to random outages. This formulation is motivated by a printed circuit board manufacturing process.
