Effects of relocation to AS/RS storage location policy with production quantity variation
Introduction • Experiment design • Simulation • Result • Conclusion
Introduction • The performance of will not be good if production quantity variation and current storage policy is kept • Find the tolerance limits and appropriate strategies for storage policy when production plan change • Random,2 and 3 class-based will be examined
Experiment design (1/3) • There are 20 items in the production plan • Production quantities vary between 10-80% • Items are assumed as end products • For 2 class-based storage • Top four items: first class
Experiment design (2/3) • For 3 class-based storage • Top four items: first class • Next six items: second class • For random storage • 1500, 5000 and 95000 unit storage time • Relocation process will be done whenever the crane idles
Simulation (1/4) • GPSS • Simulated for 900,000 unit time • Warn up 300,000 • 300,000~600,000 unit time: original • Repeat 10 times
Result (1/3) • Random storage
Result (2/3) • 2 class-based
Result (3/3) • 3 class-based
Conclusion (2/2) • Class-based storage policies perform better but have a lower tolerance • Class-based would be better if performance is the most critical issue • If performance is not critical and frequent production plan changes are expected, random storage would be better
