It is generally considered that economic feasibility of a reconfigurable manufacturing system (RMS) is only attainable if the system is defined to be reconfigurable at the outset of its design. In this work, we consider the potential exception to this perception, in the context of a common industrial scenario where a specialized and expensive manufacturing machine or system will otherwise be rendered useless due to the loss of business of the particular product being manufactured. Specific guidelines to convert from a fixed to a reconfigurable system are proposed, and evaluated through a case study. It is shown that under certain conditions, RMSs may be economically feasible even if they are developed through the modification of pre-existing dedicated systems.

This paper proposes a function model-based approach to develop manufacturing automation systems. Methods for manufacturing automation system integration and main function component design based on a function model are discussed. System cost and main function component optimization are performed in the early design stage to find low risk cost-effective solutions. To illustrate the idea, the proposed approach has been applied to a simple example of designing a flexible micro-titer tray manufacturing automation system used to fabricate DNA microarrays.
