This work presents a computational simulation model to analyze the production line of mineral water bottles. The model describes the process from bottle hygienization to delivery inspection. It was possible to verify, in this model, various parameters that may aid an executive of this sector how to size the production line according to the volume of production and the target market. For this purpose, this work uses a discrete event simulation software, free and open source called Ururau. The results of the simulated experiments demonstrated that the provision of more bottles in the entry line has a positive impact on the production, while the increase of workers and machines did not show the same equivalence.Downloads
