Abstract
Connecting companies to the paradigm of climate change leads to the creation of sustainable production systems. In this context, new approaches to processes allow the definition of sustainable manufacturing systems. The sustainability of manufacturing systems is an important aspect in order to insure the competitive power of enterprises. In this respect, the manufacturing systems must take into account economic factors, environmental concerns and social directions. Decisions regarding manufacturing development, optimization, or reorganization are driven by many factors and are often costly, with the benefits hard to justify before implementation. This paper describes an agent-based model simulation that analyses the behaviour of a sustainable manufacturing system.
