Research on Reconfiguration Point Decision Method of Flexible Manufacturing Cell

When the dynamic environment, product process updates, machine failures, and unit processing functions or processing capabilities fail to meet the order requirements, you need to select the appropriate time node to reconfigure the cell. In this paper, the complexity of flexible manufacturing cell is represented by information entropy, and the cell complexity model is established. The model is combined with the cusp catastrophe theory to establish a flexible manufacturing cell reconfiguration decision model. The disaster point is the cell reconfiguration decision point. Finally, an example is given to analyze the validity and practicability of the choice of reconfiguration decision points.
