Concrete Mixture Assembly Line Improvement using ARENA Simulation - A Case Study

Since last decade, simulation is most required part of industries of all level. In simulation process plant layout to utilization of resources can be covered. In current case study Arena simulation model is made for line balancing and man power utilization. Case study is carried out at Esquire Machines Pvt. Ltd. - Vadodara. Final product/assembly is completely made out from 6 assemblies/subassemblies. The simulation model is prepared in ARENA Simulation software (student version). As an input for model real time is collected/counted with the help of mobile stopwatch for each and every process. Data is distributed for its validation to use in simulation model on EasyFit Distribution software. Different scenarios are tested to optimize and balance the line and best solution is discussed.
