Today, most automotive engines and powertrain components in Europe and in the USA are produced on RMSReconfigurable Manufacturing System (RMS). The RMSReconfigurable Manufacturing System (RMS) has matrix-type system architecture and contains CNCComputer Numerically Controlled (CNC) machines arranged in operational stages and in-line inspectionInspection machines. To enable the rapid responsivenessResponsiveness, the RMSReconfigurable Manufacturing System (RMS) possesses six characteristics: scalabilityScalability, convertibilityConvertibility, diagnosabilityDiagnosability, modularityModularity, integrability and customizationCustomization.
