This study introduces a scheduling policy to achieve unmanned operations in machining shops representing the feature of both FMS and machining centers. The proposed policy considers the practical constraints in the machining shops such as lot sizes, multiple pallets, and jig/fixtures. In addition, rescheduling to cope with extraordinary events(eg., arrival of high-priority jobs and breakdown of machines) is included. Basically, the scheduling policy consists of four procedures; (1) selection of a job according to dispatching rule, (2) selection of a machine, (3) assignment of jobs to a multiple pallet for the unmanned operation during a certain shift, and (4) prevention of unexpected machine idle caused by constraints on jig/fixture.
