Abstract :
In order to adapt the rapidly changing and complicated market, agile manufacturing systems should have the capability of autonomy, adaptability and reengineering ability. Fractal had characteristic such as autonomy etc. The fractal characteristic of agile manufacturing system was analyzed. The universal fractal control unit frame of agile manufacturing system was presented based on multi-agent. And the internal structure and function of the fractal control unit was analyzed.
