Design and simulation of proposed automation system in existing manufacturing work environment

The manual operation may impact fluctuation in daily productivity. Manual processing also lead to increase in the number of queues, poor management of Work in Process (WIP) resulting in that impact low productivity. The objective of this project is to propose an automation system that would improve...
