Abstract
For a system to improve its productivity, optimizing it, and increase the overall efficiency of a Plant, a bottleneck is a key issue. Bottlenecks influence the efficiency and throughput of the plant. The presented Discrete Event Simulation (DES) model is one the method to analyze problems within the layout. The objective of the paper is to perform bottleneck analysis, optimization of an automobile production plant layout. The virtual environment of batch mode layouts is built by Tecnomatix simulation software. Throughput bottlenecks were identified on a real-time basis by shifting bottlenecks method. The paper illustrates that the system can be optimized by high work station utilization through managing bottlenecks with the addition of buffers
