A METHOD FOR PLACING ORDERS FOR CUSTOMIZED PRODUCTS IN A FLEXIBLE TESTBED PRODUCTION SYSTEM

This work proposes a method to organize the production of customizedproducts in a flexible assembly line, from product definition to delivery, allowing thecustomer to monitor the process. The suggested architecture aligns productcomposition with production processes on the factory floor. The implementation utilizesa Multi-Agent System-based approach, detailing its components and requirements.Validation was carried out in the production of pneumatic cylinders in a pilot Industry4.0 manufacturing plant, confirming the method's effectiveness in managing theflexible assembly line. The results demonstrated its ability to optimize production andmeet customer demands, offering insights for future improvements and application in broader industrial contexts.
