摘要：
In order to solve the problem of efficiency loss caused by the imbalance of the garment sewing assembly line, an optimization goal was established to minimize the balance loss rate. The genetic algorithm was used to obtain the result. The men's shirt assembly lines of three kind of workstation layouts (the order of processes, the type of machines and the components of garment) were taken as examples for application. The results show that there are 14 workstations in the assembly lines where the workstations are arranged according to the processes and machines. There are 15 workstations in the assembly line that the workstations are arranged according to the garment components. And the number of operators and machines required are more than the other two kinds of workstation layouts. The time loss rate of the workstations arranged according to the processes is 8.74%. The time loss rate of the workstations arranged according to the machines is 11.79%. And the time loss rate of the workstations arranged according to the garment components is 20.32%, but it is still higher than the lowest line of the enterprise. It can be seen from the simulation model that the optimized assembly lines of three workstation layouts can be applied to actual production, which can effectively reduce the production cost of the enterprise.
