Abstract

In this study, production time of three different products is determined by examining their production process and simulation models of these products are created by implementing statistical distribution of production times in an apparel company which is considering lean manufacturing principles. The validation of simulation models is done on the basis of mean throughput per day statistically. Afterwards, recent models are redesigned according to lean production principles, alternative models are created and examined in SIMUL8 software. In addition, a new algorithm which allows line balancing in simulation applications is developed. ‘Heart Algorithm’ called application tested on all models and positive feedback which increase the mean throughput per operator has received.
