In general, the tasks of scheduling in a flexible manufacturing system(FMS) are performed at the planning stage and thus these systems can notrespond to the need for decision-making to select alternate machines andalternate sequences when unexpected events, such as machine breakdown,take place in the manufacturing system. Therefore, it is important to constructa dynamic dispatching model to handle the part routing problem inthe FMS. In this research, a combined Genetic Algorithm (GA) and ColoredTimed Petri Nets (CTPNs) approach, to construct a dynamic dispatchingmodel for flexible part routes in a shop floor control system isproposed. The proposed dynamic dispatching model includes three modules:a generation module to produce a part OR graph matrix, a decision module for part routes and a CTPN simulation and control module. Thegeneration module for the part OR graph matrix generates part OR graphmatrices based on the process plans of parts. Next, the GA is introducedto search for the next appropriate machine to process the part from the partOR graph matrix based on the shortest remaining processing time. Afterthe machine for the next operation is selected, the part OR graph matrix isupdated and the CTPN simulation and control module performs the tasks ofdispatching resources for the next operation. Finally, a flexible manufacturingsystem with flexible part routes is given as an example to illustratethe performance of the proposed approach. |
