	  abstract     = {Simulation model is an easy way to build up models
to represent real life scenarios, to identify bottlenecks and to enhance
system performance. Using a valid simulation model may give
several advantages in creating better manufacturing design in order to
improve the system performances. This paper presents result of
implementing a simulation model to design hard disk drive
manufacturing process by applying line balancing to improve both
productivity and quality of hard disk drive process. The line balance
efficiency showed 86% decrease in work in process, output was
increased by an average of 80%, average time in the system was
decreased 86% and waiting time was decreased 90%.},
