Abstract

The current hybrid flow shop task allocation usually assumes a static manufacturing environment, which cannot effectively handle uncertain events in the production process. To address this, the dynamic task allocation problem for machines in parallel with different speeds is studied, and a Mixed Logical Dynamical (MLD) model for predicting the state of the production system is established. A dynamic allocation method based on Model Predictive Control (MPC) is proposed. The proposed novel method integrates dynamic model with rolling optimization to better deal with uncertain events in production process by decomposing the overall planning problem into smaller local planning models. Numerical results show that the proposed method outperform the traditional global planning method and rule-based allocation method in terms of time and job processing rate. In addition, through the Plant Simulation software, the simulation results are consistent with the numerical results, which fully proves the effectiveness of the proposed method.
