| Summary: | In order to reduce material shortage of doors in production, the current production processes needs adjusting. Currently when the buffer between the Mainline and the Door area is full the production in the unit stops. This is a problem that should not happen. To circumvent this a new concept was produced and tested with simulation in order to compare the current state with the new concept model. To achieve this, data has been gathered and analyzed to create a model that is a close approximation of reality. Using the same data input, an alternative solution was tested on two variations of the concept model. The alternative solution showed that the material shortage occurred less frequently in the concept models. The result showed that the material shortage can be drastically reduced if one implements the concept model.
