    In collaboration with Totomak A.Ş this study addresses a critical challenge in heavy machining: identifying and resolving bottlenecks in a recently established crankshaft production line. Our approach to the problem includes a series of steps and advanced computer simulations that meticulously uncover problems and formulate solutions to ensure that production seamlessly matches original plans. In addition the research examines various scenarios subjecting each scenario to a comprehensive cost analysis. These efforts contribute significantly to the overall goal of increasing operational efficiency in the heavy machining sector. Beyond the immediate benefits the study provides a practical and evidence-based method that can address the complex details of manufacturing systems. This has the potential to improve efficiency and strengthen competitiveness in this important industry providing a clear path to greater productivity and success. © 2024 Elsevier B.V.
