Abstract

A manufacturing system often consists of multiple units as workcells with complex work systems to achieve the desired outcomes in an efficient and effective manner. Uncertain events such as machine down time or scheduled maintenance are unavoidable in any manufacturing unit. In this paper, we are trying to find the maximum workload of the remaining machines to fulfill the production requirements. To achieve this, a dynamic workload adjustment strategy has been proposed with dynamic upgradation of residual life distribution model. With parallel configurations and different benchmark instances the simulation experiments has been conducted to evaluate the degradation rate of different units. Results show that the proposed method is effective for finding the residual life of multi-unit systems.
