Nowadays, most of the manufacturing procedures use different workplaces to realize given production steps. At the production workplaces different material handling solutions are applied, however the selection of the suitable handling equipment is not optimized and based on experimental knowledge. The research presented in this paper targets to develop a model which can help to select the most suitable material handling equipment for different production workplaces. This paper gives an overview about the types of the workplaces in the aspects of material handling, the principals of the model building process, the structure of the possible model versions and presents an example for the applicability of the conception.
Nowadays, the consumption is the most significant factor in the economy. The consumption requires different items, which must be produced by the industry. Production processes are realized mainly on workplaces, so their importance is inevitably. This paper presents an overview about the planning process of material handling machines, especially for the production workplaces. The research, shown in this paper, targets to develop a model, which can help to select the most suitable material handling equipment for different production workplaces. The topic presented in this paper deals with the building of selection algorithm for the exclusion of non-applicable equipment types. To show the useability of the concept an example will also be presented.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
