Description
Summary:This paper constitutes a partial output of carried out research and is focused on modelling the production process of car seat manufacturing. Given that manufacturing companies are currently struggling with a shortage of qualified workforce, it is the job of every business to keep their current employees. Companies make efforts to operate the most efficient production processes at very low cost and with labour saving. In order to produce at low cost, the work environment must be designed efficiently. There are many ways to do this. In this paper focused on optimizing production processes, Computerized Relative Allocation of Facilities Technique (CRAFT) and a Sankey diagram will be used.
