摘要: It is increasingly important to locate manufacturing activities close the most relevant competence or interesting market. The possibility easily and quickly move capacity thus becoming more important. Hence, demand for mobile has increased requires solutions a quick, rational, economical reconfiguration of production system. Within research project Factory-in-a-Box, concept been investigated through development implementation five operative demonstrators. This paper will analyze by presenting results from Factory-in-a-Box its demonstrator development. objective clarify when can be proper solution use as well discuss future possible industrial applications. show that there large range applications two dimensions - geographical distance organizational used classify mobility within systems.
