In the assembly process of high-mix low-volume production line, the control system must be flexible and robust to adapt to changes in state of manufacturing line such as switching product types, stopping for a short time, and out of stock of parts. In this paper, we propose a multi-agent based control system of the assembly process. Proposed agents work with BOM and their behavior depends on BOM tree structure. And we show mechanism of the multi-agent based control system to work with limited resources. In addition, a simulation system is developed to verify behavior of agents in various status changes.
