Abstract

This paper addresses cyclic scheduling of a single hoist in large real-life electroplating lines, where a part visits some processing tanks more than once and multiple duplicate tanks are used at some production stages having long processing times. We present a formal analysis of the problem and propose an efficient branch-and-bound algorithm. The developed analytical properties allow us to considerably eliminate dominated or infeasible solutions in the branch-and-bound procedure. Computational results on benchmark and real-life instances show that the algorithm is very efficient in scheduling large electroplating lines.
