چکیده

Material handling equipment plays an important role in the design and development of advance manufacturing systems (AMS) like flexible manufacturing systems. Material handling equipments affects the performance and productivity of these advance manufacturing systems. So it becomes very important to select a right kind of equipment while designing the high end manufacturing systems like FMS. In this paper an attempt has been made to select the most appropriate material handling equipment for the design and development of FMS. The proposed model has been build on the basis of material handling attributes and sub attributes which are critical for material handling equipment selection.
