| Abstract: | Existing approaches to cell formation concentrate on machine grouping and part family formation. Since their input data usually do not consider flow directions and volumes, they neglect layout and handling strategies that can simplify the machine sharing problem. This paper introduces a new approach for cell formation which integrates machine grouping and layout design, neglecting part family formation. The steps in the method are demonstrated by using two illustrative examples obtained from the literature. |
