When building a new company or optimising an existing one, material handling (MH) is often forgotten. Therefore, the paper presents a decision tree, on the basis of which it is possible to select the most suitable MH system by simulation depending on the selected production parameters. Such a simulation can greatly facilitate the selection of the most suitable MH system which will ensure minimal time consumption and still acceptable costs. To perform the simulation, a generalised production system model for 5 different MH systems was created in the FlexSim software, with which 32 different scenarios could be simulated depending on the selected production parameters, tested in a production facility of injection moulded components for the automotive industry. The data obtained from the simulations were then used to analyse the influence of the selected parameters on possible MH systems. For all potential scenarios, the solutions of which are acceptable for MH, a cost-benefit analysis was performed. Based on the analysis, a difference of 75 % between the most and least favourable scenarios was established.
