Consumption is increasing day by day due to rapid developments in technology and increasing world population. Companies should review their production processes in order to keep up with the consumption rate and increase their competitiveness as well as profit margins. This research shows a case study of simulation application to improve solar panel manufacturing process. The aim is to achieve goals such as increasing system efficiency, reducing inventory and shortening delivery time. Efficient manufacturing process design may reduce work-in-process (WIP), waste, rework and faults, which may reduce the total number of products and yields an increase in the system cost. Inefficiency points were determined in the process based on the obtained observations of the manufacturing system. Various scenarios have been proposed to design such an efficient production system. According to the proposed scenarios, an increase in the utilization rates of machinery, personnel and the total number of final products has been achieved.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
