MOPSO-Based Research on Manufacturing Process Optimization in Process Industry

To deal with the conflict between multiple targets involved in the manufacturing process of the process industry, multi-objective particle swarm optimization (MOPSO) is used to solve the optimization problem among multiple objectives. Basing on the manufacturing process analysis of the process industry and with the background of the cement manufacturing process of a process industry, two objective functions, which are the total processing cost and the integrated error of the mineral content in the cement compared to the standard, are established, and the concrete realization process of algorithm is given. The results of the example analysis show that when using the results by means of MOPSO algorithm to guide the production, it not only can improve the product performance index, but also can reduce the cost required as much as possible with the same performance indicators. Therefore, it is feasible to use the MOPSO algorithm to optimize the multi-objectives involved in the manufacturing process.
