dc.description.abstractThis thesis describes the design and modelling of an improved materials handling system for a beverage cap production factory called BevCap, located in Epping, Cape Town. The factory consists of twelve production lines, which produce various types of aluminium and metal screw on caps. Each production line is fully automated except for the filling, packaging, labelling and storing procedures at the end of each production line. The finished product is counted electronically and packed into carton boxes, labelled, sealed and palletised manually. The manual materials handling procedures, at the end of each production line, are causing problems and therefore an improved automated system is required.en_ZA
