Abstract

The engineering production is currently characterized by frequent changes. These changes are caused because the life cycle of products is shortened. Producers must introduced the upgraded products in a shorter interval. In this article we will focus on identifying the possibilities of production innovation in the flexible manufacturing system. An analysis of the production possibilities of one of the production machines in the flexible production system will be carried out. This production machine is a lathe that produces one basic part of the finished product. We will determine what variants of this component can be manufactured without changing the physical configuration of the machine.
