handle any type of part from operation to operation. Overhead power-and- free conveyors offer flexibility to a manufacturing operation.

Besides, self-powered monorails independently drive trolleys that can run on the level or uphill. A master controller directs the trolleys in highly flexible configurations.

СVarious types of cranes can be employed to manoeuvre parts too heavy to lift manually, and this technology includes robots as well.

It is of importance to note that automated storage and retrieval systems (AS/RS) add more than control and space saving to a manufacturing operation. As flexible manufacturing systems increase their output and the variety of parts that will be produced in small lots, AS/RS fit the needs for buffer storage. Some new FMSs are being designed with raw stock being stored in AS/RS and delivered to machines by automatic guided vehicles. The AS/RS can also provide quick access to the jigs, fixtures and tooling

required by the FMS.
иMiniload automated storage and retrieval systems, along with hori-
zontal and vertical carousels, bring parts to the worker, often under com-
puter direction.			А
	To sum it up, it is necessary to say that the user today is looking for
automatic materialбhandling system. He wants to be sure that a part can be
found when it is needed. Such system is automatic guided vehicles (AGVs)
which is beginning to take a significant role in material handling. The
guided vehicle usually carries the workpiece, on a machine pallet or fixture
base, from work cell to work cell. One can say that AVG is not only a
transporter of parts and tools, it is also a factory system for delivery, the
mode of transportation for the highly flexible systems.

HOME TASK 16

A. Memorize the words from Ex. I and be ready to do a dictation.

B. Using this lesson, make a crossword puzzle (10 words). Then let your groupmates do it.

C. Make a PowerPoint presentation (10 slides) about carts, conveyors or robots used for handling materials. You need to find some more facts yourself in the Internet. Remember to discuss the assess-

ment criteria (4 – 5) beforehand.
С	TEST YOURSELF

Material Handling System is used to 1) ___ and 2) ___ parts, as well
as materials used in processing the parts.

There are two principal forms of part transport: parts must be moved
from 3) ___ the system into it, and they must be conveyed 4) ___ the sys-

An FMS is capable of 8)		processing a wide variety of parts at 9)

and pallets are used to 10)	parts between machines. Once a part is 11)
___ into the system, itАis moved from the station to the other one under the
