Abstract :
The results of simulation tests have been presented in order to illustrate the capability in FMS management of a scheduling based on the job-group loading rule. In particular the effects of the interferences on the material handling system, the variability of machining times and the stops for breakdown or preventive maintenance, have been examined.
