Abstract
Just-In-Time/KANBAN manufacturing concepts result in models that must simulate pre-process inventories at each stage, delayed processing until downstream operations indicate work should be performed, and comprehensive analysis on production orders (make/move Kanbans) versus inventory and production activities. This style of manufacture is different from the normal push environment where machines will work on anything in the work queue, send the finished parts to the next stage, and keep working until the pre-process inventory queue is exhausted; the material arriving is itself an order to make parts. The two styles imply different control logic and statistics. Many packages support push production directly, and easily provide the necessary controls and information, but there are no packages known to the authors that directly support JIT-pull. It is the purpose of this paper to report on a JIT-pull benchmark comparison of eight simulation tools and the resulting methodological recommendations.
