Production Expansion Project in a Manufacturing Company

The contribution is oriented to the field of applicability of simulation software in the field of real conditions of already existing production. The company is planning a significant expansion of production and would like to verify the effects of this type of innovation before physically interfering with the already established production. In order to create a reliable simulation model, a high-quality mapping of the current production process and the collection of information that influence this process is necessary. This fact also affects the correctness of the entire simulation model and the created methodology. This article shows several variants of setting up the production process in terms of the number of working machines. These variants are subsequently evaluated. Subsequently, it is necessary to make a digital model of current production and gradually expand it with new factors that the company plans to implement in the future. Overall, simulation is an important tool in the verification of production variants, as it allows companies to predict, optimize, and minimize the risks associated with the implementation of new processes and technologies. This approach allows businesses to gain a competitive advantage and achieve better results in production. The article will also describe the most suitable variant of the selected devices.
