Abstract: Abstract Heating processes constitute costly manufacturing steps in metalworking industries, where planning problems are challenging due to heterogeneous furnaces and various product properties. A mathematical formulation for a real-world furnace scheduling problem described by unrelated parallel machines with job families, sequence-dependent setup times and job conflicts is presented. Model enhancements are discussed and a computational study comparing model variants is reported. The results give insights into applicability and promising model enhancements.
