Abstract: The paper deals with analysis of production line performance efficiency and builds a prediction model that enables a short-term prediction of the expected performance based on the scheduled product mix. The model was built on the basis of production line structure and domain expert knowledge about the production process. The actual schedule can be used as the model input to assist the production operators at the online production management. An additional analysis of historical data was performed to obtain an insight into performance limiting factors. Besides the online operational management support the model can be used to experimentally evaluate the effect of different scheduling strategies by linking the performance model to a discrete event simulator.
