ABSTRACT
Identifying the most efficient supply system for a company working under Lean Manufacturing practices was possible
with the support of this work. Promodel software was used to develop simulation model depicting a constant velocity
joints (CVJ) production system, where two different supply methods were assessed. According to results herein
obtained, better performance is achieved under random supply method in comparison with a clustering supply
method. The company’s goal is to keep 1% losses due to lack of material. In the actual process, this essential
parameter was reduced from 2.73% to 1.177%, if random supply method is properly implemented.
