1. 6. Using discrete-event simulation to enable implementation of picking and palletizing robots: A case study

   University essay from Mälardalens universitet/Akademin för innovation, design och teknik

   Author : Maja Kfouri; Adan Reimers; [2023]
   Keywords : DES; Palletizer robot; Internal logistics; Goods-receipt; KPI; OEE;

   Abstract : Aim: The study aims to develop a DES model to evaluate the impacts of implementing packaging and palletizing robotics in the goods-receipts process. Research questions: RQ1: “What are the requirements when developing a Discrete Event Simulation (DES) model of the goods receipt process in the internal logistics section of a manufacturing company?”, RQ2: “What is the impact of implementing a new layout with industrial palletizer robotics in manufacturing companies' internal logistics - specifically the goods receipt process in terms of robot Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE), throughput, and WIP?” and, RQ3: “What considerations should companies take into account when implementing industrial palletizer robotics in their internal logistics, in terms of process flow?” Methodology: This study applied an inductive approach, letting the empirical findings guide the themes explored in the theoretical framework while having a constant interplay between empirical data collection and the construction of the simulation model.

6. 10. Effektivisering av bygglogistik : Utmaningar

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Kommunikations- och transportsystem; Linköpings universitet/Tekniska fakulteten

   Author : Haitham Al-Ameri; [2022]
   Keywords : Bygg; logistik; transport; miljö; politik; ekonomi; miljöpolitik; bränslepriser; byggbranschen; anläggning.;

   Abstract : Varierande styrmedel samt olika politiska mål har gett upphov till varierande i bygginvesteringar. Detta har i sig lett till olika utmaningar inom byggbranschen främst inom bygglogistik. Bygglogistik och dess delar ihop med byggmaterial representerar 61% av byggkostnaden. Under de senaste 10 åren har byggkostnaden bara ökat. READ MORE
