Abstract

The problem of reconfiguration appears also for the transfer lines that are designed for mass production of a single product. When a new product should be produced at an existing transfer line, it is necessary to reconfigure it. This is costly, and thus, the reconfiguration process should be optimized. This chapter presents a multi-objective mathematical model for such a problem and develops a goal programming approach to solve it. The results of computational experiments are reported.
