The authors analysed the most popular production planning and scheduling software systems. Their main disadvantage is that they lack lean manufacturing tools. There exists a demand for client-oriented systems based on lean principles. The paper describes a unique algorithm for computing the optimum takt time, which forms the basis of the scheduling system developed by the authors. We present methods of algorithmising the scheduling process and results of generating schedules using several algorithms

Modern manufacturing industries are increasingly faced with international competition and fluctuating market conditions in the age of globalization. In striving to remain competitive, manufacturing industries must deliver products to customer at the lowest cost, at the best quality and in the minimum lead time. As a result, it becomes mandatory to design and implement the advance production planning and scheduling system that supports shorter product cycles despite more complex and specialized manufacturing processes. The advance production planning and scheduling system provides the leaner production strategies and real time information throughout the industry. This paper presents an appropriate Advance Production Planning and Scheduling Software System for a batch production aerospace manufacturing industry. The Software system receive the customer‘s order and perform material requirement planning using software. The software system sends procurement requisition to the procurement department for the materials which is not available in the store for manufacturing of parts. It issues release order to the store section for the issuance of material to the manufacturing shops. It also issues weekly and daily plan with production schedule to the manufacturing shops. It also issues work orders to the production shops for the manufacturing and assembly of the parts. On the completion of the product assembly, proper closing of the work orders has to be done and product may deliver to the warehouse for further handing over to the customers. In case of modification of order by the customer, the Software System will automatically update the relevant data.

Aiming at the design and development of integrated production planning and scheduling system(PPSS) of rare metal manufacturing, the goals and main functions of the integrated production planning and scheduling system were analyzed and designed based on the analysis of rare metal manufacturing enterprise’s main characteristics and management status. Through analysis of the present situation and trend of production planning and scheduling, an integrated system architecture was proposed. Key technologies of system integration and system developing were delivered, and some key functions of production planning and scheduling system which include annual plans management, monthly plans management, MRP management, production scheduling management and production Kanban management were developed based on JSP technology and WEB platform. The practical applications in some rare metal manufacturing enterprises were proved that the integrated production planning and scheduling system could enhance the manufacturing management level effectively.
