Facility Layout
Part aPart a
• Arrangement of physical facilities to optimize the interrelationships among operating personnel, material flow, information flow, and the methods required in achieving enterprise objectives efficiently, economically, and safely.

The Overall Objective of The Overall Objective of Facility LayoutFacility Layout
• To get the inputs (materials, supplies, etc.) into, through, and out of each facility in the shortest practicable time, at an acceptable cost.
4
Objectives of Facility LayoutObjectives of Facility Layout
• Minimize material handling costs• Utilize space efficiently• Utilize labor efficiently• Eliminate bottlenecks• Facilitate communication and interaction between
workers, between workers and their supervisors, or between workers and customers
• Minimize investment in equipment
5
• Reduce manufacturing cycle time or customer service time • Eliminate waste or redundant movement• Facilitate the entry, exit, and placement of material, products,
or people• Incorporate safety and security measures• Promote product and service quality• Encourage proper maintenance activities• Provide a visual control of operations or activities• Provide flexibility to adapt to changing conditions• Provide for employee convenience, safety, and comfort
6
• Process Layout (or Lot Production)–machines grouped by process they perform
• Product Layout (or Continuous Production)–linear arrangement of workstations to produce a specific product
• Fixed Position Layout–used in projects where the product cannot be moved
Basic Types of LayoutsBasic Types of Layouts
7
Hybrid LayoutsHybrid Layouts
• Cellular layouts–group machines into machining cells
• Flexible manufacturing systems–automated machining & material handling systems
• Mixed-model assembly lines–produce variety of models on one line

Designing Process LayoutsDesigning Process Layouts
• Minimize material handling costs
• Block Diagramming–minimize nonadjacent loads–use when quantitative data is available
• Relationship Diagramming–based on location preference between areas–use when quantitative data is not available
14
Block DiagrammingBlock Diagramming
• Create load summary chart• Calculate composite (two way) movements• An Approach: Develop trial layouts minimizing
number of nonadjacent loads
