Abstract: | Many analytical and simulation models have been developed to study the behaviour of automatic transfer lines. Most of these models, however, have neglected the important phenomenon of scrapping of workpieces. In this paper we study the effect of this phenomenon on the performance of automatic transfer lines. |
