Abstract:

The focus of this project is the development and analysis of a Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) for the production of a range of tables. Tables are typically used in homes and offices, where different variants are selected for different environments and uses. By implementing a flexible manufacturing system, different versions of tables can be produced in the same factory to fulfil different customer needs and preferences. This project designed and evaluated four different variants in the FMS, demonstrating aesthetic and functional differences while maintaining core similarities; this demons

Highly automated machine cell which is based on the principle of Group technology, comprising a group of processing work station for the production is referred to as Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS), where different processes like material handling, storage system, operation, inspection, etc., are interconnected by the automatic control unit. The concept of FMS (system 24) was first introduced in the mid-1960s to form a system that can operate 16 hours a day without any human attendant. The reason behind selecting this area for research is that there are problems like more lead time, ineffi

The simulation method to be used in FMS should be multilevel and dynamic and should incorporate solid modeling techniques. This means that operation control simulation in FMS should rely on information sources provided from different levels of the organization; thus there should be an overall planning level and a dynamic, or real-time, level. One should also conclude from this article that, without understanding the design principles and operating rules of FMS, the simulation model created will be inadequate and in most cases misleading.

The proposed routing method employs a model of the conveying system to find energy efficient and fast routes for the respective work pieces. The conveying system model is based on a directed graph, where the individual conveyors are modeled as weighted edges

Abstract:

This article presents a performance evaluation of a flexible manufacturing system (FMS), in which the system and its components can have different performance levels ranging from perfect functioning to total failure. An original multistate transition process for the FMS’s main component, Computerized Numerical Control (CNC) machine tools, proposed in the current article and treated as an aging process because of its increasing failure rate is investigated. The Markov reward approach is utilized to analyze the availability of CNC machine tools and sensitivity analysis of each non-operational st

Abstract:

SUMMARYIn this paper a new approach to planning of Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs) is discussed. This approach takes advantage of FMS features and is based on linking of machining and assembling operations. There are two problems embedded in the presented approach: station loading and operation scheduling. A formulation of a station loading problem for a single machining period is presented. Some of the computational results are also discussed.

Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMSs) provide a competitive edge in the ever-evolving manufacturing landscape, offering the agility to swiftly adapt to changing customer demands and product lifecycles. Nevertheless, the complex and interconnected nature of FMSs presents a distinct challenge: the evaluation and prioritization of performance variables. This study clarifies a conspicuous research gap by introducing a pioneering approach to evaluating and ranking FMS performance variables. The Best-Worst Method (BWM), a multicriteria decision-making (MCDM) approach, is employed to tackle this chal

One of these features is their complexity, along with difficulties in building models that capture the system in all its important aspects. In a heterogeneous flexible system, the scheduling events or actions could be a combinatorial problem which claims a particular solution.

A Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) is an integrated, computer-controlled system of machines, automated handling systems, and storage systems that can be used to simultaneously manufacture a variety of jobs. FMSs can be characterized as asynchronous, concurrent, distributed and parallel systems in which multiple operations share multiple resources so that the performance criteria are optimized. Petri nets (PNs) have recently become a promising approach for modeling FMSs.
