Abstract
The logistics simulation of the manufacturing production system is the main purpose of the present paper. The simulation for the new configuration of the production process was achieved using the discrete event simulations. The simulation model, which is corresponded with the actual state of production process was established. The new model was proposed, which is found to be superior to the current model of manufacturing system. The result of the analysis indicated essential reduction of total logistics costs.
