Layout Planning Procedure

This document outlines various facility layout planning procedures and approaches. It discusses the objectives of facility layout such as minimizing costs and maximizing space utilization. Two main approaches to layout are described: sequential, where product, process, and layout design occur in stages; and integrated, where teams work concurrently on all aspects. Specific layout procedures are also mentioned, including Naddler's ideal system approach, Immer's basic steps, and Muther's systematic layout planning.

procedure

Facility Layout
A Layout problem may be to
determine the location for a new machine,
develop a new layout for an existing production plant,
develop a layout for a new production plant,
etc.

A Layout problem may arises due to


changes in the design of a product,
addition or deletion of a product,
change in the demand of a product,
changes in the design of the process,
addition or deletion of a process,
replacement of equipment,
etc.

Objectives of Facility Layout


Minimize investment in equipment.
Minimize production time.
Minimize material handling cost.
Maximize utilization of space.
Maintain flexibility of arrangement and operation.
Provide safety and comfort to employees.

Layout Procedures
In designing layouts, the procedures can be
classified into two main categories:
1. Construction type layout methods
basically involve developing a new layout
from scratch, and
2. Improvement procedures generate
layout alternatives based on an existing
layout.

Facility Layout Procedures


Naddlers Ideal System Approach (1961)
Immers Basic Steps (1950)
Apples Plant Layout Procedure (1977)
Reeds Plant Layout Procedure (1961)
Muthers Systematic Layout Planning

(1961)

Naddlers Ideal System


Approach
The ideal system approach is based
on the following hierarchical
approach toward design:
1. Aim for the theoretical ideal
system.
2. Conceptualize the ultimate ideal
system.
3. Design the technologically
workable
ideal system.
4. Install the recommended
system.

Theoretical ideal system

Ultimate ideal system

Technologically workable system

Recommended system

Present system

Immers Basic Steps


Immer described the analysis of a layout problem as
follows: This analysis should be composed of three
simple steps, which can be applied to any type of layout
problem. These steps are:
1. Put the problem on the paper.
2. Show lines of flow.
3. Convert flow lines to machine lines.
