Abstract

The paper presents a universal mobile packaging line prototype as the outcome of a defence development project assigned by the Ministry of Defence of the Czech Republic. It is a facility designed for disassembling military as well as other material, and assembling supply units on standard-size disposable pallets suitable for road and air transportation. In the practical part, basic tactical-technical data of the universal mobile packaging line and its operating capabilities are determined using simulation software and the queuing theory.
