Multi-mixed model assembly lines (MMMALs) sequencing cooperative optimization is a typical problem that a variety of products models are assembled in multiple assembly lines. It extends the traditional products sequencing from MMAL to MMMALs. In this paper, we pose products assembly sequencing in multi-mixed model assembly lines (MMMALs) as a multiple-objective optimization problem with the objectives to minimize consumption waviness of each material in the lines, total setup cost and finished product inventory cost. The multi-objective optimization algorithm based on NSGAII is designed. Computational experiment has been demonstrated to the applicability of using NSGAII to solve the problem and effectiveness of the proposed approach. By means of this research, the valid solutions for products assembly sequence can be offered to the decision makers effectively.
