In this graduate thesis, we'll analyse an existing printing company that produces board games with its products that are distributed on the entire Croatian market. There was an opportunity to emerge on the European market that requires hardboard packaging of the mentioned games. At present, such boxes are produced manually, which takes a lot of time. Therefore, came the idea for modernizing this part of production. The experimental part will be based on the analysis and recording of the data of a handmade hardboard box. Data will be recorded on speed and consumption of reproduction material for making board games boxes. According to gathered data of the automatic lining machine, it will be compared with hand-made boxes data, and that will determine whether it is necessary to invest in the machine and after what time period the machine will pay off. It should be borne in mind that the machine requires additional costs such as maintenance costs and auxiliary materials. This data will be gathered in the printing company "Grafika grafoprint", the producer of board games requiring the said packaging box. By analyzing the current state of the company, it will be concluded whether it pays off to buy an automatic lining machine. Will the modernization of this part of the production improve the job and will the purchase of this machine satisfy all the needs of the printing company? How will this investment be reflected on the number of employees, or will there be need for less number of people to work out the corresponding amount of jobs?
