Abstract
The motive of this research is to spread knowledge and highlight the contributions of advanced manufacturing technologies towards performance in small and medium enterprises of Northern India. The impact of advanced manufacturing technologies implementation in manufacturing industries of Northern India has been judgmentally assessed in this paper. A survey of significant and reasonable number of small and medium scale manufacturing enterprises have been made. This research emphasises upon the major impacts of advanced manufacturing technologies such as computer aided design, computer aided manufacturing, robotics, automated material handling system, flexible manufacturing system and enterprise resource planning towards performance parameters such as production, quality, profit, productivity, health and safety, and flexibility. This is one of the first attempts in which relation is developed between advanced manufacturing technologies and firm performance. Further data is investigated using correlation, multiple regression and canonical cross loading analysis.
