The article presents the possibilities of using a computer simulation to analyze a selected production process. The research was carried out based on data from the plant producing shaft packages from ready glass molds. The simulation takes into account the availability of machines and the average repair time for individual machines. An exemplary model was presented and various organizational and logistic solutions were analyzed. The conducted simulations allowed for direct identification of areas of increased efficiency. The solution to the highest process efficiency was indicated.
