1. 1. Oven Usage Optimization : A study on scheduling at the wear edge production at Olofsfors AB

   University essay from Umeå universitet/Institutionen för matematik och matematisk statistik

   Author : Anna Karlsson; [2023]
   Keywords : Scheduling problem; Re-entrant hybrid flow shop; Packing problem; Batching rules; Sensitivity analysis; Genetic algorithm; Schemaläggningsproblem; Packingingsproblem; Laststorleksregler; Känslighetsanalys; Genetisk algoritm;

   Abstract : Olofsfors is a steel product manufacturer in Nordmaling, Sweden, producing steel edges for snowplows, tracks for forest machines, and wear edges for buckets on heavy equipment. Most of their products are heated to 900◦ C and then cooled down in water, so-called quenching, during the hardening process. READ MORE

3. 2. Discrete Event Simulation of the Paint shop at VBG Truck Equipment : A method for Work shift Optimization and Balanced Production flow

   University essay from Högskolan Väst/Institutionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

   Author : Athira Ashok Kumar Prasanna Kumari; [2022]
   Keywords : Discrete Event Simulation; Work shifts; Bottlenecks; Production flow; simulation mode;

   Abstract : The background for this thesis work emanates from a desire to drive the production of the VBG Truck Equipment factory in Vänersborg a step further to catch up with the Industry 4.0 standards. Discrete Event Simulation (DES) is a widely adopted tool within industries to model real-world systems to improve their processes. READ MORE

4. 3. Evaluation of Traction Control Systems for an Electric Forklift Truck

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Fordonssystem

   Author : Mattias Karlsson; Sebastian Johansson; [2021]
   Keywords : forklift; traction control; maximum transmissible torque; model following control; sliding mode control; slip; asr; tcs; mfc; mtte; smc; electric vehicle; master thesis;

   Abstract : This thesis evaluates different controllers for traction control on an electric forklift truck and has been done in cooperation with Toyota Material Handling Manufacturing Sweden. The need for a traction control system has increased with the introduction of lithium-ion batteries replacing the older lead-acid batteries, reducing the battery weight and therefore the downward force on the driving wheel increasing the risk for slip.

5. 4. Safety Optimization of Material Handling Forklift Truck Operations

   University essay from KTH/Industriell produktion

   Author : Carlos Conde Carvalhal; [2020]
   Keywords : Forklift truck; Material Handling; Operational Safety; Observation; Incident; Risk; Unsafe Situations; Digitalization; Truckar; Materialhantering; Driftsäkerhet; Observation; Incident; Risk; Osäkra situationer; Digitalisering;

   Abstract : The prevention of incidents and injuries is fundamental for any industry activity since those events may result in serious economic, environmental, and human losses. Due to the centralization of Linde filling operations within Sweden, several of their plants are being phased out to move the production to Enköping. READ MORE

6. 5. Evaluation of Model-Based Design Using Rapid Control Prototyping on Forklifts

   University essay from Linköpings universitet/Reglerteknik

   Author : Lovisa Jansson; Amanda Nilsson; [2019]
   Keywords : Rapid Control Prototyping; Model-Based Design; Forklift; Automatic control; Speedgoat; Model Predictive Control; MPC; P Controller; Models; Simulink; Matlab; Minimum Jerk Trajectory;

   Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to evaluate Rapid Control Prototyping which is apart of the Model-Based Design concept that makes it possible to convenientlytest prototype control algorithms directly on the real system. The evaluation ishere done by designing two different controllers, a gain-scheduled P controllerand a linear Model Predictive Controller (mpc), for the lowering of the forks of aforklift. READ MORE
