Abstract

A systematic procedure of module-based modeling is designed and proposed to develop a simulation of any flow-type multistage manufacturing system adopting especially the dual-card Kanban system. First, functional analysis is performed to present kanban flows exactly in the same fashion in a simulation model as they are actually appeared in the real manufacturing system. One Customer module, the required number of Workstation modules, and one Supplier module make a set to develop a designated simulation. In addition, a numerical example is shown to apply the proposed procedure.
