manufacturing system that it serves. The study considered the design of a waste handling
system at the factory Printpak Gravure in Industria. The system in use was considered cost
inefficient, The system was examlned, operating variables were determined, A model of the
system was constructed so that the effectiveness of alternative systems could be compared.
The replacement system selected reduced machine downtime and resulted in a lower yearly
operating cost.
