Improving the logistics of the multi-floor assembly manufacturing

Abstract

 The concordance of the vertical transport carrying capacity and of the performance of a multi- floor assembly manufacturing is one of tasks of production logistics. This paper defines the performance of multi- floor assembly manufacturing, depending on the number of parallel working  flexible assembly cells, the weight or volume distribution of the finished product on the  floors, the  floor area occupied by the assembly production and vertical transport, the carrying capacity and number of freight elevators, time of their working cycle. The conditions to achieve the rational performance of multi- floor assembly manufacturing are revealed, allowing to determine the number of parallel working  flexible assembly cells, the number of  floors taking into account the height and the production of area  floors, performance and footprint  flexible assembly cells, the technical characteristics of the freight elevators and the area occupied by them. It provides the conditions for effective operations of the multi- floor assembly manufacturing and servicing, the vertical transport.
