Life Cycle Cost Calculation for Manufacturing Systems by Means of Reconfigurability Analysis

  • Chapter
Reconfigurable Manufacturing Systems and Transformable Factories

Abstract

As markets mature, they become increasingly global in nature, and companies find themselves competing with companies in many different parts of the world, which are subjectto different laws and have different intellectual and natural resources. This makes the need for continuously updating and improving products a major factor for successful companies.
