Abstract

Manufacturing flexibility is essential for improving the efficiency and responsiveness of modern production systems. This thesis explores various dimensions of production adaptability, including technology, navigation, manipulate, product, and volume flexibility, and their impact on the efficiency of Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS). The main goal of this research is to create a complete framework for effectively controlling manufacturing flexibility in order to improve systems Efficiency.This study employs a comprehensive approach, including literature evaluation, case studies, and empirical analysis, to identify the fundamental components and measurements of manufacturing flexibility. The study examines the many forms of adaptability that enhance the overall responsiveness and effectiveness of Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS). The study also investigates the connections between these multiple types of flexibility and how they might be optimized to generate improved Efficiency outcomes.A substantial amount of the thesis focuses on the creation of a control mechanism that incorporates flexibility management into the operational strategies of FMS. This mechanism incorporates sophisticated scheduling algorithms, real-time monitoring system, and decision-support tools that are specifically designed to adapt to evolving production demands and scenarios. The suggested methodology is verified through both simulation and real-world deployment in certain production contexts.The research findings indicate that proficiently overseeing manufacturing flexibility can outcome in substantial enhancements in production efficiency, cost savings, and overall systems adaptability. This thesis presents a systematic approach to managing flexibility, providing significant insights for manufacturers seeking to improve the Efficiency of their Flexible Manufacturing System (FMS). The paper provides recommendations for future research and practical advice for industry experts to embrace and implement the offered solutions for managing flexibility.
