探討同步規劃下雙邊生產線平衡之型三問題

生產線平衡問題可分為單邊生產線平衡和雙邊生產線平衡，它們的主要差別在於生產路線的設計。雖然單邊生產線平衡問題的研究已取得大量的成果，但是有關雙邊生產線平衡的研究卻較少。雙邊生產線相較傳統的單邊生產線，具有縮短生產線長度、提高生產設備利用率以及降低生產成本等優點。因此，本研究將建構一個整數非線性規劃(Integer nonlinear programming, INLP)數學模型用來處理考量同步規劃下之TALB第三類平衡(Type Ⅲ)問題。此外，本模式在求解方面則利用Lingo 9.0 extended version套裝軟體內建之Global Solver進行運算，並舉一數值範例進行求解說明。因此對於有關雙邊生產線平衡之Type Ⅲ最佳佈置可藉由本研究所提出的模式加以獲取。本研究並嘗試將各工作站中可同步作業的單元進行同步化的考量，使製造者不至於低估其生產率、高估空間使用率以錯失獲利。綜言之，本研究因採用套裝軟體進行建構與求解，因此在實務操作上，具有其重複應用之價值。

Assembly lines balancing can be categorized into one-sided assembly lines balancing (ALB) and two-sided assembly lines balancing (TALB). Most researches focusing on ALB problems has been well investigated and discussed, however, the researches focusing on the balance of two-sided assembly line are less. TALB can provide the following advantages over one-sided assembly lines: shorter line length, reduced throughput time, lower cost of tools and fixtures, and less material handling. Therefore, this study will to construct an Integer Nonlinear Programming (INLP) mathematical model to handle Type Ⅲ of TALB problem with considering of the synchronous. In addition, the proposed mathematical model is constructed by the syntax of the extended inversions of the software package Lingo 9.0, selecting a built-in Global Solver as its solution method, followed by a numerical example. And this study tries to consider the synchronous of the production elements in the same workstation to avoid the underestimation of production rate and the overestimation of occupied rate of space. This study creates a highly repeated characteristic because of the application of packaged software. Based on the above-mentioned reason, this study can be considered as a valuable decision tool for a production planner with profound insights.
