This document seeks to enhance the manufacturing procedure of graphics card assembly within a certain organization. To enhance the manufacturing workflow, The Siemens Tecnomatix Plant Simulation application is utilized. The initial and crucial action to enhance the production procedure is to examine the existing workflow to identify where delays or interruptions are happening. Consequently, the initial simulation focusses on the existing manufacturing procedure. During the subsequent trial, the modifications have effectively executed all the suggested modifications in the enhanced production procedure. The encompassed substituting the human labour force with a pair of machines in the tenth phase, which entails the construction of sizable parts. The execution of the enhanced procedure enables the assembly of 44 graphics cards within a single hour, marking a rise of 15 graphics cards relative to the existing method. During a work period of eight hours, a total of 353 graphics cards can be put together, exceeding the existing production method by 118 graphics cards.
