MANUFACTURING TRENDS IN LOADING AND UNLOADING OF MACHINES IN FLEXIBLE MANUFACTURING SYSTEMS
Keywords:
Manufacturing Strategies, Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS), Loading, Unloading of MachinesAbstract
Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS) is the most adopted and utilized for manufacturing among several manufacturing strategies in batch production of mid volume and mid variety of product requirements. FMS Installation is still a costlier issue. FMS is a great focus of attention in manufacturing environment on shop floor for batch production requirements in industries and in academic research since a number of decades. The need of small scale FMS is prevailing in the research field in present manufacturing scenario. This paper presents the manufacturing trends in loading and unloading of machines in FMS and the scope of research in the field.
