Excellence in manufacturing systems has been recognized as one of the main factors behind the success of industrial companies or production companies. New technology for manufacturing processes plays a significant role in this process. Achieving the potential of technological innovations in production, however, requires a wide range of management, as well as engineering issues related to the system. The handling capacity of advanced materials is essential because without this ability of providing the material needed for the proper workstation at the right time and in the right amount, the whole plant will become "bogged down." This makes it less efficient and thus produces less profit, and/or it operates at higher costs. This paper proposes two approaches for the dispatching of AGV (automated guided vehicle) using systems fuzzy. The first use hierarchical fuzzy rule-based model building in which the main feature is to make the base of fuzzy rules is smaller and simpler but with high coverage and interpretability. The second use adaptive genetic fuzzy system with simple prediction in which the main feature is to increase the sensitivity of the system about the variables. Both approaches using multiple attributes and having the objective decrease the makespan in a FMS (flexible manufacturing system).
