Summary/Abstract: Today, with the support of computer, simulation method has become a widespread method. Significant issues for companies such as the quality, short supply time, and reduction in cycle times are optimized by the simulation modeling technique that is functional for all fields. The aim of this article is to simulate the variations in efficiency for a real production system by applying different manufacturing scenarios. Factors and events which have negative impacts on the system efficiency constitute the core of the problem. The production system of the press plate of TefaĢ A.ġ, a company in the automotive parts industry, is modeled by PROMODEL 4.22 simulation program. Comparisons are made between the current system and the proposed system which is renewed by PROMODEL. Improvement suggestions are presented in the final.
