    Serial production lines under pull environment
    (1996) Eskigün, Erdem
    Uie aim of this thesis is to evaliuite the performance of transfer lines under pull environment. In this study, we have modelled a two-stage trcuisfer line separated by finite buffers by using Markov-Chcun representation. Experiments with different parameters were carried out to evaluate the different performance measures of the system. A two-stage simulation model was also constructed by using the package PromodelPC 2.0. Since two-stage models are limited to analyze most prcictical systems in manufacturing, we have extended it to an N-stage model. From the experiments performed for both two-stage and Nstage models, we hcive observed that we can decreci.se the in-process inventory substantially by just exchanging the positions of the nicichines in the system. Assembly-disassembly systems under pull environment have also been modelled by using simulation.
