Summary on Grant Application Form |
1) Academic: to deliver generic solutions for the short term control of part, fixture and cutting tool flows and their interactions in a flexible batch manufacturing facility, and as a consequence produce pre-produce software.2) Industrial: to generate knowledge and techniques to allow industry to minimise the cost of tooling support for batch manufacture, whilst maintaining high system performance.
