For the in-plant logistics of such systems, milkrun trains could present advantages under high variability conditions. This article uses an industrial study case from a global white-goods manufacturing company. A discrete events simulation model was developed to explore the performance of multi-model assembly lines using a set of operational and logistics Key Performance Indicators. Four simulation scenarios analyse the separate effects of an increased number of product models and three different sources of variability. The results show that milkruns can protect the assembly lines from upstream process disturbances. info:eu-repo/grantAgreement/EC/H2020/814225/EU/DIGItal MANufacturing Technologies for Zero-defect Industry 4.0 Production/DIGIMAN4.0 This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation program under grant agreement No H2020 814225-DIGIMAN4.0 info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess by http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/es/ 2.1 2023 ENGINEERING, MECHANICAL 83 / 183 = 0.454 2023 Q2 T2 ENGINEERING, ELECTRICAL & ELECTRONIC 193 / 353 = 0.547 2023 Q3 T2 0.474 2023 Electrical and Electronic Engineering 2023 Q2 Computer Science (miscellaneous) 2023 Q2 Mechanical Engineering 2023 Q2 Control and Systems Engineering 2023 Q2 Industrial and Manufacturing Engineering 2023 Q2 Control and Optimization 2023 Q2 3.0 2023 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Gracia-Cadarso, Marcos Torralba, Marta (orcid)0000-0002-3069-2736 Gil-Vilda, Francisco (orcid)0000-0001-8460-3076 Yagüe-Fabra, José Antonio Universidad de Zaragoza (orcid)0000-0001-7152-4117 5002 515 Universidad de Zaragoza Dpto.
