Abstract: Abstract In chemical engineering, pinch analysis holds a long tradition as a method for determining optimal target values for heat or mass exchanger networks by calculating an optimal alignment of available flows. A graphical representation of the time-material production relationship derived from the original pinch analysis can be used for aggregate production planning. This can deliver insights in the production planning problem as several production strategies can be compared. The approach is applied to a case study on bicycle coating.
