Abstract

In manufacturing environments, there are potential requirements for a manufacturing step to be performed within a specific amount of time; failure to do so could result in product being defective or scrapped. This paper will show how a simulation model was used to define which factors are of utmost importance when determining the amount of product that can be released into one of these time sensitive steps.
