Facility Layout Definition
■
A facility layout is an arrangement of everything
needed for production of goods or delivery of
services. A facility is an entity that facilitates the
performance of any job. It may be a machine tool, a
work centre, a manufacturing cell, a machine shop,
a department, a warehouse, etc. (Heragu, 1997).
■The
layout design generally
depends on the products variety
and the production volumes. Four
types of organization are referred
to, namely fixed product layout,
process layout, product layout and
cellular layout (Dilworth, 1996).

Objectives of Plant Layout
■
The main objective consists of organizing equipment
and working areas in the most efficient way, and at
the same time satisfactory and safe for the personnel
doing the work.
❑ Sense of Unity
■
❑
❑
Minimum Movement of people, material and
resources.
Safety
■
❑
The feeling of being a unit pursuing the same objective.
In the movement of materials and personnel work flow.
Flexibility
■
In designing the plant layout taking into account the changes
over short and medium terms in the production process and
manufacturing volumes.
Product Layouts

◻
Part of the manufacturing process which
allows for the repetitive assembly of highly
standardized products.
When a manufacturing operation utilized
product layout, production work can be layout
in
a straight
line
with labor and equipment subdivided in a
smooth line.

◻
Fora garment
manufacturer,stations for
sewing cloth, sewing on buttons, inspecting
seams, wrapping finished garments and
boxing them up would all be located within
close proximity for an individual clothing item,
allowing individual garments to pass from one
station to another quickly.

◻
A process layout is a type of facility layout in
which the floor plan is arranged with similar
processes or machines located together.

◻
Again using
the garment manufacturing
example, a process layout would group
multiple sewing stations together for different
clothing items in one area, then locate
inspection, wrapping and packaging stations
for different items together in different areas.
