Machining is an important process which is carried out in manufacturing industry. Machining is any of various processes in which a piece of raw material is cut into a desired final shape and size by a controlled material-removal process. The manufacturing industry has been experiencing a competitive environment and striving hard to find methods to improve quality, efficiency and productivity. In order to attain all these aspects, the organization should introduce a maintenance system continuously. OEE is one of the performance evaluation methods that are most common in the production industries. In a manufacturing industry, the layout and material flow in the shop floor decides its productivity. To such a great extend the entire utilization of OEE would possibly results in large productivity. This project work has been carried out as a case study in a machining industry with the objective of reducing the idle time. The problems in the current shop floor are identified there by made a layout and analyzed through simulation. Then the problems which affect the machine efficiency are identified and corrective solutions are implemented. Then with those details the layout is modified, simulated and the results are compared with the current layout. The results revealed the cycle time.
