What is finite capacity scheduling?
The VAPS works with finite capacity scheduling
Finite capacity scheduling means to schedule with limited capacities:
- The default assumption is to have a capacity of 1 per machine center, meaning that each machine can just work on one operation at a given point of time
- It makes sure that you do NEVER overload a machine center.
- Any change in the schedule leads to automatic recalculation of the entire schedule.
- This principle is also applied to complex routings:
- serial
- parallel
- Dependencies are taken into account:
- dependencies between operations (of one production order)
- dependencies between production orders (if made from reservations)
