In this paper the authors have conceived an innovative assembly cycle of railway vehicles that can improve the manufacturing process. The study has been carry out using Virtual Reality (VR) technologies in the VR Laboratory of the Competence Regional Center for the qualification of transportation systems founded by Campania Region. The developed simulation environment has allowed to evaluate different workplaces layout configurations of the train assembly cycle. The best workplace layout configuration has been detected in order to minimize the lead time in the production line and to optimize the automation level and the human component for each workplace.
