Abstract

Nowadays, automobile industry builds and operates manufacturing systems in developing countries, e.g., low wage countries in order to cope with global market competition. System planners have to pay attention to the conditions coming from the agreement between the investing companies and the developing countries. Normally, there are some limitations such as employing a certain number of workers. So a manufacturing system used in the competence location, i. e., high wage country should be reformed to fulfil the requirements of the conditions.

In this paper, the planning method of designing the most appropriate system for manufacturing transmission gears in a developing country is presented. Thinking Process of TOC (Theory of Constrains) as well as 3D simulation of digital manufacturing methodology are applied to analyze alternatives and get results logically, quickly and objectively.
