Resumo: | ||||||||
In this work, the focus is on a rarely studied problem in the technical
literature - the inbound containers (importation) process delivery, with reach
stackers for moving the containers . In this process, customers schedule their
containers withdrawal in one of the several allowable time windows - two hours
time, without fixed arrival order. Containers pre-segregation occurs in the night
before the effective delivery day. Thirty containers are stacked by time windows
in six stacks five containers high and a buffer area allocated for subsidiary
movements. The purpose of this work is to identify and to evaluate comparatively
the key performance indicators associated with the thirty containers maximum
delivery levels in each time window. The model is necessarily a simulation one,
because it involves the container stack packing (random), its access and
movement by reach stacker equipment (with typical access policies) and the truck
arrival for withdrawing the container (also random). Two different sequencing
rules are compared - first in, first out (FIFO) and smallest processing time (SPT).
Solving the model in a FIFO delivery discipline, the conclusion is that the two
hours time window is insufficient to deal with the 30 (thirty) containers delivery
in a Poisson process arriving trucks. The second delivery system studied - a
decision process applied in the waiting queue (based on selecting the container
with the minimal expected unproductive movements), more promising results
have been obtained, although insufficient to pick up all the containers. Alternative
scenarios were then offered to solve the problem.
