Robustness Evaluation of Flexible Manufacturing System Considering the Static & Dynamic Manufacturing Environment

It is always the important and key research issue to estimate the robustness performance of flexible manufacturing system in the field of the advanced production management technology. A robustness evaluation method is proposed considering the static and dynamic manufacturing environment. The robustness is regarded as the combination of the scope of changes and the errors maintain capacity. Delphi method is introduced to decide the weights of the two single indexes. Finally a case study is used as an illustration to present the detailed evaluation procedure.
