Zusammenfassung:The problem of slitting coils of some material (steel, paper, etc.) into smaller widths is considered in this paper. An extended linear programming model is presented that considers inventory and production scheduling aspects in addition to trim loss. The L.P. model produces an optimum slitting schedule that minimizes trim and inventory costs subject to several common production and material constraints. A plan for implementing the model is presented.
