Abstract [eng] The aim of the final work was to improve the technological line of production of standard doors and production using quality tools. For this purpose, a small-medium-sized furniture manufacturing company was selected. The company's door production line has a lot of manual work, unnecessary movement of materials and workers, which causes a lot of rejects and takes a lot of time. In general, it is difficult for the wood industry to fully automate small and medium-sized enterprises as they are more engaged in individual production. After analysis of the technological line by using Pareto analysis, Ishikawa chart, Flow process chart analysis, 5WHY method, and Spaghetti chart, the main problematic production sections were identified: Painting, Smoothing and Drying. In the final work it is proposed to change the layout of the technological line, additionally purchase machines for the Painting-Drying sections. Also, Flow chart and Visual Management tools have been proposed to help manage work environment and make operations easier. These proposals would help to reduce unnecessary movement of materials, workers and would increase production efficiency.
