Abstract

This paper describes a model and associated algorithm for generating maximum throughput cyclic schedules for the movements of a hoist in a PCB electroplating facility. The algorithm is enumerative in nature and involves the solution of linear programming subproblems. Computational experience with schedules for real systems is presented.
