Abstract EN

A shop floor control system (SFCS) is a central part of a computer integrated manufacturing system.

It is necessary to define a control architecture and functional perspective of how a SFCS operates.

A CONWIP (constant work-in-progress) system is basically a hybrid system with a PUSH-PULL interface at the first machine in the line.

This research proposes a new algorithm to determine this optimal wip level by generating a program using C #, which gives the actual value of “M” and then control the storage.

A planning procedure to set the constant wip level of each product type in a job shop operated under CONWIP control is developed.
