Abstract

We provide a novel mathematical model for cell creation in cellular manufacturing systems (CMS) that is based on the idea
of cell use in this research. The model's goal is to maximize cell utilization performance while minimizing exceptional
elements (EE) and the amount of cell voids. In order to ensure that the suggested model can successfully group parts and
machines, it is compared to other models in the literature and a number of test problems are carried out. These models
include [S.J. Chen, C.S. Cheng, A neural network-based cell formation algorithm in cellular manufacturing, International
Journal of Production Research 33 (2) (1995) 293-318], [I. Mahdavi, O.P. Kaushal, M. Chandra, Graph-neural network
approach in cellular manufacturing based on a binary system, International Journal of Production Research 39 (13) 2913 -
2922].
