Abstract

Manufacturing system design is a hard job when a new factory is built. Although some factories produce the same product, the layouts of the factories may be different. The machining line of engine shop in an automotive factory is a typical flow line, but the layout concept of the line is different among factories. In this paper, a simulation study on the design concept of the manufacturing system for automotive engine is discussed. For the comparison, three types of real engine block lines in different factories are analyzed, and three structures of parallel lines were extracted. The effects of failure distribution on the performance measures of three types of parallel line structures were investigated, and some insights of the layout concept ware suggested.
