companies should be able develop new products.
This means that for a company, product development
is an important aspect for competing in the market.
In this situation, a need for a design support tool to
help product development team in the development
activities is very urgent. This paper addresses the
development of a design support tool based on
mathematical model related to cycle time, modeling a
multi-stage, multi-product production line system
and it can process a variety of products in a batch
production environment. Products are processed
according to a predefined sequence. The tool used at
earlier stages of product design to develop products
in a shorter time. |
