CE cluster 척도에 의한 생산셀 설계

Design of Manufacturing Cells with the Converted Entropic Cluster Measure

Manufacturing cell formation is one of the most important problems faced in designing cellular manufacturing systems. The purpose of this study is to design effective manufacturing cell systems by developing a method which forms machines/parts into optimal machine cells/part families. The 0-1 data matrix structure is used to form a basis for manufacturing cell formation. In this paper, we propose a CE method to reorder the 0-1 data matrix for manufacturing cell formation. The resulting solutions are shown to demonstrate the effectiveness of the CE method.
