Abstract

Nowadays, a well-designed capacity supply is essential for a company’s competitiveness. In this situation, a flexible and efficient capacity control is among the most important measures. In this paper, we presented the potential of reconfigurable machine tools. Based on this, we described the concept of the throughput time harmonizing capacity control. Moreover, we evaluated the theoretical potential of this capacity control approach in a simulation experiment. In further steps, we will analyze the total potential in different simulation studies.
