Abstract Many types of manufacturing industries uses the different types of simulation techniques with different methods either integrated or individual to optimize their performance and increase production capacity. As we know six sigma method have been developed as become improved the capability of process performance and reduce wastage. The idea of this paper is to implementing combination of both six sigma and anylogic simulation in real case manufacturing industry for reduction processing time, improve processes and improve productivity using statistical data analysis and embedding for continues improvement an organization in practice. Here on the six sigma method implemented by DMAIC through over an industry on effectively way however it to identify the problem causing approaches in manufacturing organization alongside anylogic simulation using discrete event simulation (DE) and agent based simulation (AB). This paper also shows the fundamental relationship between six sigma and anylogic simulation in manufacturing line on effectively way.

1. INTRODUCTION

   Manufacturing industries are facing dynamic competitive environment they have to need increase their customers requirement and stand the position in competitive and also they have to do increase their productivity with optimal time and optimized product. Here on implementation of six sigma and anylogic simulation have become helps to meet the reduction process and increase the productivity by statistical data analysis. Simulation technology has progressed continuously in recent times and various new software packages are coming into the market while already existing software packages are being improved and update. Anylogic simulation widely uses in many business or manufacturing industry for effectively progress. The most common part of anylogic simulation in discrete event (DE), agent based (AB), system dynamics (SD) simulation. On our case study we works only with Discrete event simulation and Agent based simulation.

   In this paper meet to increase process capabilities and increase the production capacity. If the level of output is

   increased faster than that of input, productivity will increase. Conversely, productivity will be increased if the level of input is decreased faster than that of output. Also, an organization may realize a productivity increase from reducing more output with the same level of input. Finally, producing more output with a reduced level of input will result in increased productivity. Productivity is the ratio between output and input. It is quantitative relationship between what we produce and what we have spent to produce. Productivity is nothing but reduction in wastage of resources like men, material, machine, time, space, capital etc.

3. FRAMEWORK TO TNTEGRATED SIX SIGMA AND MULTI- METHOD SIMULATION (DE, AB) IN MANUFACTURING

   INDUSTRY

   There are mainly four approaches of framework for success for research in which Measure phase, Analyze phase, Improve phase and Control phase.

   Measure phase focus on understanding root cause problem during implementing input and finalize getting output. On the other hand create interaction in internal variable. In this phase to measure the root causing problem like organization interaction for six, define the manufacturing flowchart for DE modeling and analyze the behavior of element or agent for AB modeling.

   Analyze phase is come up potential solution data by processing work. Here on six sigma worked by DMAIC tools in organization, DE and AB modeling go through the Statistical data.

   Improve phase will work to put the process or strategies after the analyze phase. In this the changes will work on the DE AB simulation throughout the flowchart. This is an

   important phase to enhancing the capabilities of the process flow work.

   Finally the Control phase will test the long term process of work flow to validate the output resultant data of simulation work.

4. RESEARCH GAP

   There are many research has been done to study on Six sigma and Multi-method simulation for enhancing the process capabilities and productivity improvement for an business and manufacturing industries.

   But There is only few research work has been establish in terms only with small medium sized manufacturing industry using six sigma and multi-method (DE and AB) simulation for increase process capabilities, manufacturing process time, and productivity and its analysis.

Here on the organizational goal meet by the integration of six sigma and Multi method simulation.

The key improvement in organization are:-

• To enhance productivity

• To reduce un-necessary cycle time

• To reduce the un-necessary processes

• To optimize the organization management performance (men, machine and power).
