20.500.12556/DKUM-97327 The impact of the collaborative workplace on the production system capacity: Simulation modelling vs. real-world application approach In recent years, there have been more and more collaborative workplaces in different types of manufacturing systems. Although the introduction of collaborative workplaces can be cost-effective, there is still much uncertainty about how such workplaces affect the capacity of the rest of production system. The article presents the importance of introducing collaborative workplaces in manual assembly operations where the production capacities are already limited. With the simulation modelling method, the evaluation of the introduction impact of collaborative workplaces on manual assembly operations that represent bottlenecks in the production process is presented. The research presents two approaches to workplace performance evaluation, both simulation modelling and a real-world collaborative workplace example, as a basis of a detailed time study. The main findings are comparisons of simulation modelling results and a study of a real-world collaborative workplace, with graphically and numerically presented parameters describing the utilization of production capacities, their efficiency and financial justification. The research confirms the expediency of the collaborative workplaces use and emphasise the importance of further research in the field of their technological and sociological impacts. simulation modelling production system capacity Industry 5.0 assembly line human-robot collaboration collaborative workplace simulacijsko modeliranje proizvodni management zmogljivost proizvodnega sistema proizvodne linije industrja 5.0 interakcija človek-robot timsko delo true false true Univerza v Mariboru Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik https://apem-journal.org/Archives/2021/APEM16-4_431-442.pdf Članek v reviji 2026-02-27 14:52:51 2026-02-27 14:52:51 2026-03-11 09:25:40 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2021 0 0 str. 431-442 no. 4 Vol. 16 Dec. 2021 0000-00-00 Zaloznikova Objavljeno NiDoloceno 2021-09-07 2021-12-13 2021-12-18 658.5:004.94 90157059 10.14743/apem2021.4.411 1854-6250 APEM16-4_431-442.pdf APEM16-4_431-442.pdf 1 EE91137363266B6B513E99993046B62F 5c319fdc14fd82014dc4eb4ff890437b4b746a6c6002dd605df56a61f5be12ed e550a6df-13e3-11f1-bb89-00155d580e1a https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=204044 https://apem-journal.org/Archives/2021/APEM16-4_431-442.pdf 0 eaf3d1dc-13e3-11f1-bb89-00155d580e1a https://dk.um.si/Dokument.php?lang=slv&id=204045 Fakulteta za strojništvo Advances in production engineering & management 0 0 0
