The paper describes the concept of worker movement analysis tool based on Spaghetti diagram as a result of international project focused on lean production. The presented solution allows to create diagrams and evaluate them according to time, distance, number of visited places, etc.  \nKeywords: lean production, Spaghetti diagram, assembly, worker movement  \n1. Introduction  \nIn terms of competitiveness, various factors decide about the success or failure of the company. These factors relate to the product [1] (technical, functional, operational, price, quality parameters, etc.) as well as the manufacturing process itself and the people who work in this production. The goal of various tools is to find and remove reserves [2, 3] . If we focus on the person asan important factor affecting the production, we will need to search for ways tooptimise the worker activities. One of the challenges in this area is the analysis of worker or workers movement at the production area and the final aim of improving the parameters of a solution by identifying and removing activities that do not directly contribute to the creation of the product value. It regards the application of lean manufacturing principles at the stage of evaluation of current layout respectively new layout proposals of the production. Layout has influence on performance and competitive advantage of firms [4] . To propose layout there exists various methods. Every method has own advantages and disadvantages [5] . There is possible to propose many layouts and then it is necessary to choose one. It is difficult task because when we consider different criteria, different layout can be considered as a right one. There are various suggestions e.g. [6, 7] to choose“right layout”. Firms are nowadays in very challenging environment. Firms are asked for mass customisation, high speed of production and high quality of products. These demands require high flexibility of firms. This flexibility must allow layout changes according to produced products also. To choose “right  \n1 Eng., Technical University in Košice, Slovakia  \n2 Eng., Technical University in Košice, Slovakia, email: [albert.mares@tuke.sk](albert.mares@tuke.sk)  \n[3](3 Eng.)[ Eng.](3 Eng.), Slovak University of Technology in Bratislava, Slovakia  \nlayout” there are various criteria. One of the criteria can be the workers´ movements. Spaghetti diagram is an aid to support their visualisation and analysis.  \nThere appear some modern accesses how to fulfil above mentioned demands. One of them is concept called Industry 4.0. - Digitalisation for productivity and growth. This concept depends among other things also on:  \n- “The application of information and communication technology (ICT) to digitise information and integrate systems at all stages of product creation and use (including logistics and supply), both inside companies and across company boundaries;” [8]  \n- “Collection of vast quantities of data, and their analysis and exploitation, either immediately on the factory floor, or through big data analysis and cloud computing.”[8]  \nIn accordance with application of ICT and data collection and their analysis, software application for workers’ movements analysis was proposed and created.  \n2. Lean Production  \nLean manufacturing or lean thinking [9, 10] has its origin in the concept to achieve better economic results with a special focus on waste elimination. The concept of waste (Mudas) is based on Toyota production philosophy by Taiichi Ohno [11], which was later identified as Lean Production or Lean Thinking [9] . In principle, there are seven basic types of waste:  \n- Transport, which does not add value to the product and therefore the costs associated with transporting are counted into","cbCaisZvrZWwUQ1t","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaisZvrZWwUQ1t","pdf",938683,12,"English","# Introduction\n## Lean Production\n# Spaghetti diagram\n## Concept of tools for worker movement analysis","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the worker movement analysis method address?\",\"answer\":\"It targets the challenge of analyzing worker movement in production areas to identify and remove activities that do not directly create product value, supporting improved layout and performance.\"},{\"question\":\"What is a Spaghetti diagram used for in this context?\",\"answer\":\"It visualizes movement paths within a system using lines, allowing tracking of workers, materials, and other moving objects across production or workplace areas.\"},{\"question\":\"How does the proposed solution evaluate the diagrams?\",\"answer\":\"It enables evaluation using metrics such as time, distance, and the number of visited places, helping identify inefficient movements and overlapping or crossing paths to guide organizational and layout changes.\"}]","SPAGHETTI DIAGRAM APPLICATION FOR WORKERS’ MOVEMENT ANALYSIS - lean production | PDF",1792976346]
