Production Techniques

Today, markets increasingly require more customized products, with shorter life cycles. In response, manufacturing systems have evolved from mass production techniques to the ?exible automation. This paper argues that manufacturing systems of the next generation will have to incorporate more ?exibility and intelligence, evolving towards recon?gurable manufacturing systems. In particular, the concept of intelligence becomes more relevant because of the need to maintain e?ective and e?cient manufacturing operations with minimum downtime under conditions of uncertainty. This chapter presents some research issues related to the development of reconfigurable manufacturing systems with pervasive computing.

Factory Of The Future

Tacit knowledge is a very important intangible asset at manufacturing enterprises and Next Generation Manufacturing Systems (NGMS) is a relevant concept to understand manufacturing paradigms. Some Manufacturing paradigms are Factory of the future (FoF) in a Sustainable Manufacturing environment. There is a need not only to create approaches to understands the NGMS addressing the FoF to support Sustainable Manufacture, but also to capture the key manufacturing tacit knowledge through this process. This paper presents a novel idea about tacit knowledge modeling and reuse in a sustainable manufacturing application.
