Abstract: | This study is an attempt toward an empirical examination of the flexibility trade-offs in an FMS by using computer simulation. Various configurations of FMS are simulated with a variety of loading and dispatching strategies. The results show that there is a trade-off among the various flexibility types. Some scenarios illustrate that a combination of variables like scheduling environment, product variety, and system configuration, can be effective. In other cases, FMS can acommodate more than one flexibility type simultaneously. |
