The objective of this 1st Workshop was to bring together end-users, manufacturers and (computer) control specialists to evaluate possibilities in the important field of factory automation. This volume offers solutions for product, process design, production design and control. Technical criteria are also discussed and economic justification methods are evaluated. The papers included present intelligent, modular, "low cost" approaches or solutions appropriate for small and medium sized companies which might benefit from improved efficiency and competitiveness.
For all those with an interest, either theoretical or practical, in factory automation.
Selected papers: Preface. CIM for small and medium sized companies, P. Kopacek & M. Zauner. A low cost control structure for flexible production lines with multitask workcells, Th. Borangiu et al. PC-based hierarchical manufacturing cell control, E. Freund et al. A CAPP system for automatic tools selection in drilling operations, J. Isotalo & K. Jansson.
