Abstract
This paper presents a study of the influence of the parking location of a transport and loading facility on the total duration of transport operations in flexible automated areas with a cassette type of service.
Based on the analytical determination of the number of main technological equipment, as well as transport and loading devices, the equipment layout of a flexible automated section for machining parts of the “body” type was developed. Based on the obtained flexible automated section and the developed technological processes of mechanical processing of body-type parts, a simulation model (discrete event model using the agent method) of the functioning of a flexible automated section in the AnyLogic 8 Personal Learning Edition 8.9.2 software environment was built.
As a result of simulation modeling of the functioning of a flexible automated section for machining parts of the “body” type in the AnyLogic 8 Personal Learning Edition 8.9.2 software environment, the dependencies of the total duration of transport operations on the parking location of the transport and loading facility were obtained. A rational parking location for the transport and loading facility was determined, which reduced the time required to perform transport operations by 57.2 minutes.
Based on the presented results, analytical dependencies were obtained that make it possible to determine the optimal parking location of a transport and loading facility without using simulation modeling, which reduces the time spent on making design and technological decisions in the process of designing flexible automated sites.
Based on the conducted research, a methodology is proposed for the analytical determination of the optimal parking location of a transport and loading facility according to the criterion of minimum time spent on transport operations. In the example under consideration, a reduction in the execution time of transport operations was achieved by another 41.5 minutes.
Based on the developed methodology, an approach is proposed to determine the optimal layout of the site equipment according to the criterion of the minimum total time of transport operations.
