Resumen:

The aim of this paper is to show some of the benefits of using simulation to analyze manufacturing processes, particularly those related to tasks scheduling in a paint plant in the automotive industry. Simulation can provide information about a manufacturing process because a discrete event simulation model can capture both the variability and interdependencies of system elements. We can identify four levels of planning activities: 1. Aggregate Sales and Operations Planning, 2. Aggregate Operations Planning, 3. Master production Plan and, 4. Task Scheduling. It is in this fourth level where priority rules are used in tasks sequencing. This paper shows a case study about an important car manufacturer's Paint Shop. We built a model in Promodel 6.0 in order to test different priority rules in scheduling painting tasks.
