Verification of the desired sequence of products passing through areas of paint shop using a discrete event simulation model

Goal of this diploma thesis is to create discrete simulation model of a buffer for sorting cars by their color in order to create bigger color blocks in front of upper paint area in paintshop of ŠKODA AUTO a.s. in Mladá Boleslav. Simulation model is created in Plant Simulation software produced by Siemens PLM Software company. Section of this diploma thesis is paid to system analysis of conveyors used in solved area and to suggestion of planned modifications. It is tested by simulation model whether the planned modifications would have positive effect on production characteristic in concern area. Conclusions are deduced from mentioned experiments
