Research On The Optimization Of Dual-product Distribution Strategy Under Mixed Flow Manufacturing System

With the change of market,the implement of customer demand gradually has been divided into many small batches.In the face of such consumer market,many enterprises has established the mixed flow manufacturing system to meet customer diversification and personalized needs with many varieties,small batch,short cycle of production and timely delivery.Specifically speaking,this study is in the scope of a supply chain that consist of a mixed flow manufacturing company and some customers which are at different locations.The customers need two kinds of products with small batches.And because these customers want to sale of products again,the mixed flow manufacturing enterprise must ensure that the customers have the certain product inventory or the inventory of two kinds of products.So that these customers can provide the products in the first time to meet the needs of its corresponding terminal customers.The mixed flow manufacturing enterprises collected the two products needs of customers and make sure the rhythm production transformation of the two different specifications of the products.The distribution department decided to select mixed distribution strategy or not mixed distribution strategy by considering the existing two products output time and the number of finished goods and its own distribution capacity.The distribution strategy should improve distribution service levels as much as possible.Combining with the reality,the paper established nonlinear integer programming model for the problem in theory,and designed tabu search algorithm to solve the model.The paper used Matlab carrying on a simulation to analyze an example in order to validate the model finally.The paper also provided key points for the enterprise to select each distribution strategy distribution strategy and under each distribution strategy specific vehicle routes and the distribution amount.This paper argued that in the face of the given production rhythm,considering different products production situations and distribution ability limit,the distribution department of mixed flow manufacture enterprises can select the distribution strategy positively in order to make the delivery more refinement.The total number of distribution under different distribution strategies and distribution depart time of each vehicle are the important factors.The distribution department of the mixed flow manufacturing enterprise can calculate the total delivery times of each distribution strategy with the change of production pace,vehicle loading capacity and customer demands.And we can decide which distribution strategy to use by comparing the total distribution times of the two distribution strategies.
