Abstract
This article aims to use simulation methods to analyze the production process of coils for transformers of a company located in the state of São Paulo. Arena software was used to perform the computer simulation of the process in the company in question, in order to identify the bottlenecks. The data were collected and related to the production time of 75kVA, 225kVA and 300kVA power coils. Through these data it was possible to create a flowchart for the current scenario of the company. The results showed that there are bottlenecks in the production processes of the three coil powers. After the verification, some suggestions for improvements were proposed; from them, we performed a new simulation adapting the data to the proposed changes and verified the efficiency and feasibility. The methodology used was research in scientific articles, books, journals, academic websites and aimed to analyze the production process of transformers through computer simulation with the Arena software. Through the Arena software we bring the simulation closer to the reality of production, facilitating the visualization of bottlenecks and decision making.
