摘要

Material handling is the activity of transporting materials from place to place within a manufacturing facility. The cost of material is significant and non-value-added for manufacturers; thus, managers strive to plan material handling so as to enable efficient production while minimizing cost. However, material handling is a very complex process, and consequently any algorithm or procedure to optimize material handling must consider multiple performance variables, including labor and equipment costs, time and distance, and the effects of possible material shortages. However, most conventional optimization procedures assume a single variable to be optimized. Therefore, combining or integrating multiple optimization variables into a single cost function is an active research area. In this paper we show how an abstract discrete event simulation can serve as the basis of an integrated cost function for a complex manufacturing material handling planning process. A weighted sum objective function applied to the simulation's results is the cost function. That cost function is used to calculate the reward in a larger implementation that applies reinforcement learning to improve material handling plans. The larger project is briefly described in this paper to set the integrated cost function in context. This may be the first work that shows how multiple material handling performance variables can be integrated into a single cost function suitable for optimization or machine learning.
