Abstract
In this chapter application of fuzzy set theory to setup planning is described. Fuzzy set theory can deal with the uncertainty and imprecision. At actual shop floor, one faces the problem of uncertainty, imprecision and subjectiveness. Fuzzy set theory can circumvent this problem to some extent. Two examples have been illustrated to show the efficacy of fuzzy set theory, one concerning with feature precedence relation and other with datum selection. A practical strategy for adaptively controlling the setup plan is also suggested.
