This Master’s Thesis follows from three months of internship in an Italian company located in the area of Turin, called Eurodies Italia S.r.l. Eurodies produces prototype bodywork components for the most important automotive OEMs. After understanding how their industrial processes work, a modeling and simulation study was performed, with the target of providing the company with tools, methods and suggestions to increase its productivity. This Thesis reports such study, as well as the suggestions that may be useful for the company, and for other firms operating in such sector. The first chapter explains why a medium tier-2 company of the automotive sector is an interesting object for a Master’s Thesis study: several key figures of the European and Italian automotive market are reported, both at a financial level and at an industrial and society level.
