Pull Production Policies: Comparative Study Through Simulative Approach
Authors: Mosè Gallo, Guido Guizzi, Giuseppe Naviglio
Abstract
Over the years, the JIT approach has highlighted some different types of pull production systems. Many researchers have developed control systems pull, based on a new strategy for managing production "pulled" from the market. They have proposed control policies such as Kanban, CONWIP, Base Stock and different techniques arising from combination of two of these policies Generalized Kanban, Extended Kanban, CONWIP-Kanban. In literature, there are several works on the analysis of each control systems, but there are few works that treat more extensive comparisons of different policies. In this study we have analyzed some different pull production policies to single-product multi-stage system to highlight similarities and differences in terms of performance, through the comparison of simulation models built with ARENA software.
