Devolpment and Modeling of an Industrial Process Plan, Its Optimization using stochastic search Optimization Technique

Industrial process planning is principally an association between design and development or final production and has vital function in the manufacturing systems. In this paper the under research industry is security vehicle manufacturing industry in Pakistan. First of all a fundamental process plan is developed and then modeled mathematically using progressive closed loop approach. Mathematically modeled process plan is then optimized in order to find optimal or sub optimal solutions. Research then investigates the capability of an innovative optimization technique called stochastic search in handling optimization of manufacturing process plan. This new technique of stochastic, searches the best approximate process planning solution. Finally the research examines the convergence of optimization techniques to an optimal solution for a manufacturing framework.
