Introduction
This project aims to model the production line of Vayhan Coffee Limited (VCL). VCL is a leading coffee manufacturing company in India, exporting coffee worldwide.
The facility produces 3600 MT of instant coffee annually in spray dried and granulated varieties. The plant is located in Andhra Pradesh, India.
Five final products (A, B, C, D, and E) are simulated to identify bottlenecks and improve overall output.
Project Objectives
- Determine the efficiency of the current production line.
- Identify and reduce bottlenecks in the process.
- Improve facility layout to enhance productivity.
Summary and Conclusions
The production line was successfully modeled and validated against the current 3600 MT annual output.
The spray drier was identified as the primary bottleneck. Adding an additional spray drier could significantly increase capacity.
