Approach: A mathematical model has been developed to analyze the fabrication process and a special heuristic is designed for solving the model. The model uses actual data presented from an Aluminum Fabrication Industry (AFI). Results: Reduced the amount of waste generated substantially during the process. Conclusion/Recommendations: Considerable savings in waste generated can be realized by using scientific approaches through mathematical modeling.}, journal = {Journal of Mathematics and Statistics}, publisher = {Science Publications} }
