Abstract
In this research, a newly developed moth-flame optimization algorithm (MFO) is presented for solving optimization problems in manufacturing industry. A well-known milling optimization problem is solved to emphasize the effectiveness of the MFO in the optimization of manufacturing problems. In the optimization problem solved in this paper, the main aim is to maximize the profit rate for multi-tool milling operations considering difficult constraints. The results demonstrate that the MFO is an effective optimization method for the solution of manufacturing optimization problems.
Kurzfassung
In der diesem Beitrag zugrunde liegenden Forschungsarbeit wurde ein neuentwickelter Moth-Flame-Optimierungsalgorithmus (MFO) zur Lösung von Optimierungsaufgaben in der Fertigungsindustrie eingesetzt. Hierzu wurde eine wohlbekannte Optimierungsaufgabe beim Fräsen gelöst, um die Effektivität des MFO in der Optimierung von Bearbeitungsprozessen herauszustellen. Bei dieser Aufgabe bestand das Hauptziel darin, die Profitrate für Multi-Werkzeug-Fräsoperationen unter Berücksichtigung schwieriger Bedingungen zu maximieren. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, dass der MFO ein effektives Optimierungsverfahren für die Lösung von Optimierungsaufgaben in der Fertigung darstellt.
