Abstract :
The paper discusses the aspects taken into consideration for a generic manufacturing system problem and the analysis techniques used. MATLAB is used to finally simulate the system and find the results after comparisons and reports generated. The simulation revealed the savings in the form of manufacturing times, man hours, & investment in comparison with the conventional manufacturing environment. It also provides a platform for modeling and analysis of the system for any changes in production schedules and any future expansions.
