Abstract
We focus on the economical aspect of a high-volume flexible manufacturing system (HV-FMS) for agile manufacturing. We develop a model to estimate the economical behavior of HV-FMS and flexible transfer line. Under several demand patterns which have been generated from historical data, both models are simulated to evaluate the effectiveness of HV-FMS from an economical view point.
