| Abstract: | The authors describe and classify different pull production systems. The production control systems kanban and CONWIP are analysed with respect to production rate and average WIP. They examine single product flowlines with exponential service time distributions and unlimited demand at the final buffer. The distribution of cards (kanbans) has a significant effect on the performance of kanban systems. Different types of kanban control mechanisms show equivalent performance data, if the distribution pattern is adapted accordingly. Concluding remarks and directions for future research are included. |
