  1. 11. 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.

    Keywords : Reuse; Circularity; Client’s Organization; Challenges; Circular Renovation; Återanvändning; Cirkularitet; Byggherrens organisation; Utmaningar; Cirkulär renovering;

    Abstract : The construction and real estate sectors are significant contributors to greenhouse gas emissions and have a profound impact on the environment. However, in recent years, construction companies have begun implementing circular practices to reduce these emissions and promote the goals of Agenda 2030. READ MORE

  4. 13. Construction logistics during the crisis: challenges and solutions

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

    Author : Adam Ols; Melker Sanden; [2023]
    Keywords : bygglogistik; Covid-19; Krig; Ukraina; Krisläge;

    Abstract : Byggnadslogistik handlar om hur man förser byggprojekt med rätt material och utrustning till rätt tid. Då byggprojekt anses som temporära fabriker så är byggnadslogistiken en stor grund till att projekten fungerar så bra som möjligt. READ MORE

  6. 15. 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
