Abstract:
Abstract In the pallet pool system, the differentiation of palletized freight volumes in different regions and seasonal transport of certain goods lead to the imbalance of pallets distribution among regions. It is necessary to improve the utilization of pallets through dispatching. The paper analyzes the factors which affect empty pallets dispatching, it includes carbon emission, transportation time and pallet type based on the pallet pool mode of enterprise alliance. On this basis, the optimization model is established with the goal of minimum total dispatching cost. Then, according to the di

Abstract:
The double traveling salesman problem with multiple stacks involves the transportation of goods between two regions. In one region, a vehicle carrying a container visits customers, where pallets of goods are loaded into the container. The container is then shipped to a different region, where another vehicle visits another set of customers where the pallets are unloaded. Pallets are loaded in several rows inside the container, where each row follows the last-in-first-out principle. The standard test instances for the double traveling salesman problem with multiple stacks implies the use of a 4

Abstract:
The warehouse process, as one of many logistics processes, currently holds an irreplaceable position in logistics systems in companies and in the supply chain. The proper function of warehouse operations depends on, among other things, the type of the used technology and their utilization. The research in this article is focused on the design of a warehouse system. The selection of a suitable warehouse system is a current research topic as the warehouse system has an impact on warehouse capacity and utilization and on the speed of storage activities.

This contribution proposes an optimization of material flow by means of modernizing of forging lines - type induction furnace / crank forging press / trimming press. The basis of design of forging line treatment is placement of hydraulic shear machine for shearing of heated bar to semi-products before respective forging of forged pieces. This method helped to remove previous redundant workplace for semi-products preparation, which causes reduction of technologic operations and substantial decrease of material flow in die forge.

Many advanced assemblies require high-volume and cost-effective selective cleaning during various stages of assembly or rework operations. Due to component compatibility problems and drying challenges, partially assembled devices cannot be immersed in or sprayed with aqueous cleaners or solvents. Newer dry cleaning techniques such as carbon dioxide (CO2) aerosol spray cleaning processes (snow cleaning) have proven to be challenging to implement in automated high-volume manufacturing operations. Issues associated with conventional snow cleaning include high costs of operation, lack of process c

Failure in proper design of ergonomic hand tools can lead to the prevalence of hand-related injuries. In order to improve the ergonomics of hand tools, numerous studies have been done on causal factors related to these injuries such as grip postures, grip forces and torque directions. Nevertheless, there appears to be limited studies concerning how pinch effort can change with different types of tactile sensations. Therefore this study aims to determine the effects of different tactile sensations on pinch effort. A total of 110 manual workers from the wooden pallets and furniture manufacturing

Firstly, there is a certain range of assembly parts that does not fit very well into the existing standard load units. Secondly, the average measurements of the parts have grown in the last years and thirdly, several of the existing containers leave unused space in the transportation vehicl
