The importance of the manufacturing shop design in the successful operation of a production system is well documented and, as a result, significant work has been devoted to this area. Due to the inherent complexity of the global shop design problem, much research has focused on individual sub-problems, including the layout of manufacturing resources, the design of the shop aisle network, and the selection of the material handling equipment, rather than addressing the integrated problem directly. This paper reviews literature contributions to shop design integration, as well as partial integration schemes such as the design for operation and control of material handling systems. Furthermore, it examines the ability of models and solution approaches for individual sub-problems of shop design to support integration schemes. |
