Flexible Manufacturing Systems

Flexible Manufacturing Systems (FMS) are advanced, automated production setups that use computer-controlled machines and robots to efficiently produce a variety of products. They enable quick changes in manufacturing processes to accommodate different designs without significant downtime. FMS combines multiple machines, automated material handling, and computerized planning to improve flexibility, reduce costs, and increase productivity. This setup allows manufacturers to respond rapidly to market demands, customize products, and maintain high quality while minimizing waste and production time. Overall, FMS enhances manufacturing agility and efficiency in a competitive environment.
