Abstract	This paper deals with a simulation study to investigate the effects of various scheduling policies on the performance of a typical flexible manufacturing system (FMS). The scheduling issues considered are part launching, part sequencing at central buffer and tool selection rules on a flexible manufacturing system (FMS) involving tool movement along with part movement policy. The simulation model is developed using C language. This simulation ensured bias-free output after verification, validation steady state analysis. Detailed analysis has been carried out using different scheduling rules. The performance measures considered make span, mean flow time, mean machine utilization and mean tardiness. The results achieved through the simulation have been statistically investigated. The best possible scheduling rules combinations for part launching, tool selection and part sequencing at central buffer have been identified for the selected flexible manufacturing system (FMS).
