Abstract
The attainment of a lean engineering organization is the critical requirement for ensuring a return on investment in intelligent manufacturing. Achieving this is based on measuring the effects of flexibility, and on the capability of exploiting the resources' adaptability by combined control and management of the product and production processes. This objective needs extended experimentation of the actual behaviour of the manufacturing facilities. This paper introduces the opportunities offered by the availability of a prototypical implementation that joins a simple pilot plant to a computer simulatorI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
