Improvement of Production Process Parameters on the Surface Treatment Line by using TX Plant Simulation Software Tool

The paper deals with the evaluation of properties and improvement of parameters on the steel surface treatment line. Using the Tecnomatix Plant Simulation simulation module, we processed the production process in the original line condition. We focused on production problems and customer requirements that the company is currently unable to meet flexibly. For better line flexibility, we have designed and simulated the unification of the manufacturing process of two finishes into one concurrent process. The proposal consists of a handling crane expansion at the production line about for next track and hoist. Each hoist would thus concurrently serve at one manufacturing process, thus maintaining continuity both production processes. Moreover, it has increased its daily production of processed batches on the line.
