The layout design of multiple-cell automated manufacturing systems includes cell layout design and flow path layout design. Traditional layout methods often treat these two as separate problems and the sequence for solving them is usually cell layout

This paper investigates the machine layout problem with a linear single-row flow path within an automated manufacturing system. Traditional machine layout approaches can produce inappropriate layout designs because they often do not consider flow pat

Flexibility is one of the most sought-after properties in modern manufacturing systems. Despite this interest, flexibility remains poorly understood in theory and poorly utilized in practice. One reason for this is the lack of general agreement on ho

The locations of cell I O points are critical to the inter-cell flow efficiency. Traditional I O point locating methods often focus on minimizing inter-cell flow distance. However, an inter-cell movement incurs not only inter-cell flow distance but a

In this paper, we investigate cell formation problems in a manufacturing system with flexible processing and routeing capabilities. Flexible processing means that a part can be manufactured by any one of several process combinations. Flexible routein

Following the success of flexible manufacturing systems (FMSs), their counterpart, flexible assembly systems (FASs), have been developed to automate factories further. As in a FMS, the cellular approach is considered as the most feasible and flexible
