The document provides an overview of the Flexible Manufacturing Framework (FMF). It describes FMF as a set of standards and modular components for manufacturing execution, including error-proofed instructions, communication protocols, and common operator interfaces. The main objectives of FMF are to provide standardized and manageable manufacturing solutions by assembling reusable modules and leveraging open protocols. FMF was developed based on lessons learned from multiple Visteon sites and aims to reduce custom code, applications, and dependencies across sites. Currently over 60% of operations at several Visteon sites utilize FMF solutions.
