Abstract

Limited nature of production capacities accompanied by growth of demand for carpets does not allow for full satisfaction of the effective demand for these products. Bettor market supply can be promoted through extension and modernization of the plant, improvement of production technology and. introduction of better organizational solutions. The article presents a way of optimal utilization of production capacities in a weaving mill of one of carpet factories. The quoted model and algorithm of its solution are to provide a basis for construction of assortment production plans and production capacity utilization plans of machinery and equipment. There was made an attempt at definition of these plans by means of network methods. On the mathematical side the problem was formulated in the form of linear programming problem in the solution of which there was applied the Simplex method. After making all computation on the Odra 1304 computer, there was performed an analysis which revealed a "bottle neck" in the production process, the elimination of which calls for technological and organizational changes. The analysis was not aimed at providing a solution in the form of ready-made assortment production plans but only at suggestion of the method and its verification in the basis of obtained information and own estimates.
