    2. Flexible Manufacturing System

    3. Definition of Flexible Manufacturing System Consists of a group of processing stations (usually CNC machines) ; interconnected by means of an automated handling and storage system and controlled by an integrated computer system. Capable of processing a variety of different types of job/part under NC program control at the various workstations so we can refer it as FMS

    4. What is an FMS?

    5. Basic Components of an FMS:

    7. Workstations

    8. Material Handling and Storage System

    11. Types of FMS

    13. FMS and FMC

    18. Elements of the Vought F.M.S.: - Eight 4-axes Milacron 20 HC horizontal machining centre with Allen Bradley numerical control and a 90 capacity tool magazine. A washing station. 4 wire-guided vehicles. Two Carousals, each with 10 spaces. Two D.E.A. vertical measuring machines, with transverse movement and heads with two axes of rotation. A rectification centre. Swarf treating system.

    19. Differences between FMC and FMS

    21. Another classification of FMSs is by level of flexibility:

    23. Random-order FMS More appropriate when the part family is large, substantial variations in part configurations, new part designs introduced into the system and engineering changes in parts currently produced, and production schedule is subject to change.

    24. Flexibility criteria applied to dedicated FMS and random-order FMS

    36. Material Handling and Storage System

    39. FMS Layout Configurations

    51. Material Handling Equipment

    53. Equipment used as primary handling system

    54. Computer Control System

    59. FMS Planning and Design Issues

    60. FMS Planning and Design Issues (continued)

    65. FMS Benefits

    67. Disadvantages of FMS
