Flexible tool management strategy for optimum tool inventory control

Flexible tool management strategy for optimum tool inventory control

The design and functioning of a Flexible Tool Management Strategy (FTMS) paradigm for optimum tool inventory sizing of CBN grinding wheels for nickel base alloy turbine blade fabrication is presented. The FTMS is integrated in an agent-based tool management system as a domain specific problem solving function of the intelligent agent responsible for tool inventory sizing and control. The evaluation and comparison of the performance of the FTMS paradigm was carried out with reference to two real industrial cases of CBN grinding wheel inventory management

interesting paper to read and great project, FTMS paradigim and two industry cases are well presented, however, i am not quite clear about your justification work in the pdf file, can you give more details regarding to the trational tool management, and what are the benefits of the FTMS. thank you.
