The primary contribution is to present an application of fuzzy logic and constraint networks to a problem of manufacturing flexibility. The paper begins with a literature review showing the different approaches when measuring manufacturing flexibility. Next, it provides a brief review of fuzzy logic and its applications, explaining how it enhances the ability to model flexibility strategies. Then, the application is presented and its utility is demonstrated with an example from the production of printed circuit boards. Finally, the paper concludes with comments on how this model could be expanded to other applications.
