    Industry 4.0 has emerged as a new technological generation for productive systems, including simulation and robots as continuous improvement tools. The need of continuous improvement has involved to manufactures with the aim of optimizing resources. This research aims to generate an innovative environment through simulation processes by comparing variables with statistic data, and costs from the storage and transportation system of Continental Tire Andina. Research analysis has started with the workgroups from the SM35 and Triplex machines by tracing operator’s activities and timing, during eight hours. This data has been essential for examining and imitating the current productive system with FlexSim. Once results are acquired; they have been analyzed, and measures have been evaluated with the new workgroups, which incorporate AGV and two robotic arms. Working with this equipment has led to a successful adjustment of the simulated setting. According to these results, costs and financial indicators for the project have been feasible. By means of simulation positive outcomes have been obtained with an increasing percentage of 3,32% and 13,83% from the two machines. Alternately, financial indicators as Net Present Value and Internal Rate Return have been shown genuinely beneficial for future perspectives, presenting positive numbers. Furthermore, the internal return rate has been higher than the discount rate. Costs have been reflected as an increasing productive system, and monetary value based on simulation.
