Resolution of the Detection of Bottlenecks in Job Shop Enterprises using Discrete-Event Simulation and Lean Six Sigma

Job shop enterprise aims to sustain production without significant capital expenditure. This paper presents a methodology combining Discrete Event Simulation (DES) with lean six sigma’s DMAIC approach to analyze results and optimize throughput. It identifies bottlenecks by examining machine standard deviation in a balanced production system

Abstract

Job shop enterprise aims to sustain production without significant capital expenditure. This paper presents a methodology combining Discrete Event Simulation (DES) with lean six sigma’s DMAIC approach to analyze results and optimize throughput. It identifies bottlenecks by examining machine standard deviation in a balanced production system
