Abstract:Order resequencing of sequential production lines is a critical daily challenge in automotive industry. Simulation models can evaluate production status, but it needs to be improved for more accurate resequencing visualization, simulation and optimization. In this paper, a high-fidelity hybrid simulation model is being developed to support managing of production control department. This aims to understand and control the dynamic behavior of paint shop production system with respect to hidden causes of order resequencing in daily work. Being calibrated by real-world paint shop production data resources, this model can visualize, approximate, and analyze the complex interaction in order production flow of the paint shop. Furthermore, a resequencing strategy that tackles color-batching problem is developed and implemented on the proposed hybrid model to evaluate paint shop production performance.
