Critical Analysis of Scalability of Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems

Abstract

Due to the rapidly increasing industrial competition in the globe, it has now become fundamental of engineering firms to implement fundamental industrial approaches, which promptly and reliably focusses on sudden transformation of the design of engineered products. Emergent strategies, which might allow forms to cope up with the quickly transforming changes of product specification is centered on Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems (RMSs). This research contribution discusses the significance of the presently available scalable Manufacturing Systems (MSs) that allows engineering firms to meet the demands of the market quickly. RMSs have to be designed on the outset of the futuristic scalability to allow its cost-effective and prompt expansion according to the demands of the globe. As such, this research contribution provides the principles to given manufacturing systems’ design to enhance scalability.
