Evaluation of Performance by Operating Process Improvement Modeling On A Company With Pump Manufacturing

Year 2019, Volume: 31 Issue: 4, 305 - 315, 01.11.2019

Abstract



There may be more than one element affecting quality and efficiency in
the manufacturing organizations. As a result of multiple elements occurring at
the same time, permanent losses occur in final production and quality. Both the
customer sense of trust and their satisfaction are negatively affected because
of those problems.



Failure to achieve targeted levels of quality and productivity in the
organization reduces customer satisfaction. Quality and productivity in the
organization are affected by inefficiency in resource utilization, bottlenecks
in the production and inefficient workflow design within the organization.



This study aims to improve production process in a manufacturer of air
operated diaphragm pumps by simulation analysis. Most efficient way of
utilizing raw materials, manpower, vehicles and equipment is sought by
simulation based process improvement. Discrete-event simulation software
(Arena) is used to detect problems in the production process such as:
transportation, blockage and/or layout. Simulation is used to experiment with
process improvement approaches without making changes in the real-world
production system.



Simulation models of the current state and the proposed future state with
improvements to the layout of the production system are created. The results
from the models were compared with each other and evaluations were made. The
future state simulation model utilizes existing resources for process
improvement, without the requirement for additional resource acquisition.
Comparison of current state model and future state model simulation output
data, suggests a 67% increase in the number of products produced per month. It
is foreseen that this increase can greatly affect the operational efficiency and
future managerial decisions, and suggestions are made for future works.
