AbstractThis research considers a hybrid flowshop scheduling problem where jobs are organised in families according to their machine settings and tools. The family setup time arises when a machine shifts from processing one job family to another. The problem is compounded by the challenges that the formation of job families is different in different stages and only a limited number of jobs can be processed within one setup. This type of problem is common in the production process of standard metal components. This paper aims to propose two approaches to solve this problem. One is a metaheuristic in the form of a genetic algorithm and the other is a heuristic. The proposed approaches are compared and contrasted against the two relevant metaheuristic and heuristic adapted from solving a generalised sequence-dependent setup flowshop problem. Comparative results indicate that the proposed genetic algorithm has better performance on minimising makespan and the heuristic is more effective on reducing family setup time. © 2012 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
