Description
Summary:This paper addresses scheduling challenges in hybrid flow manufacturing systems with crane transportation (HFMS-CT) driven by intelligent control, mass customization, and eco-friendly manufacturing. Unlike previous studies, it considers the interdependence between machine processing and crane transport, focusing on minimizing both makespan and energy consumption. A bi-objective mixed-integer programming model is developed, and the Epsilon-constraint method is used for small-scale cases. Given the NP-hardness, a modified multi-objective Harris Hawk optimization (MMOHHO) is proposed. It adopts greedy mechanisms by integrating Laplace crossover, tent-based chaotic mapping, elite selection, and nonlinear optimization strategy to balance exploration and exploitation capabilities. The proposed algorithm is compared with the Epsilon-constraint method and benchmark metaheuristics. The experimental results reveal that the proposed algorithm outperforms other methods regarding NPS, DPO, IGD, and ES evaluation metrics. Finally, an in-depth discussion is conducted using a real-world case study, offering valuable managerial insights and practical recommendations for implementation. ●The crane transporting path and conflict are considered in the hybrid flow manufacturing system (HFMS) scheduling problem.●A bi-objective MIP model with minimizing makespan and energy consumption is formulated.●Multi-objective Harris Hawk optimization algorithm is improved with hybrid strategies designed by the characteristics of bi-objective HFMS scheduling problem.●Greedy mechanism is introduced to enhance exploitation strategy during iteration.●The proposed algorithm is validated to be superior to Epsilon constraint method, MOGWO, and MOPSO.
