Description
Industrial competitiveness today means shorter
product lifecycles, increased product variety and shorter time-tomarket.
To face this challenge, the manufacturing industry is
forced by different initiatives, namely Internet of Things,
Industrie 4.0 and Cyber-Physical System to move from
traditional control approaches towards intelligent manufacturing
control systems that are dynamically adaptable to changing
production environment and flexible to different processing
tasks. For years several emergent intelligent approaches such as
Multi-Agent Systems, Service-oriented Architecture, Plug-and-
Produce systems and Cloud technologies have been developed in
a variety of research fields. This paper reviews the state-of-theart
methodologies and technologies of flexible and reconfigurable
manufacturing systems outlining the differences between them
and arising benefits within the vision of the PERFoRM
(Production harmonizEd Reconfiguration of Flexible Robots and
Machinery) project. Current trends and challenges in industrial
implementation of these methodologies are reported and research
opportunities are described.
