FACILITY LAYOUT

1. Facility layout Meaning : Facility layout is an arrangement of different aspects of manufacturing in an appropriate manner as to achieve desired production results. Facility layout considers available space, final product, safety of users and facility and convenience of operations.

2. Types of FACILITY layout PRODUCT LAYOUT ( LINE LAYOUT ) ALL THE MACHINES ARE ARRANGED IN SEQUENCE AS REQUIRED TO PRODUCE A PARTICULAR PRODUCT. MACHINES ARE ARRANGED IN A STRAIGHT LINE SO CALLED AS LINE LAYOUT. ONE PRODUCT OF ONE TYPE IS PRODUCED AT A TIME. THE RAW MATERIAL ARE FED AT ONE END AND TAKEN OUT AS FINISHED PRODUCT TO THE OTHER END. USEFUL FOR MASS PRODUCTION. FOR E.G. : PLANT SETUP IN A FOOD FACTORY AS SHOWN IN NEXT SLIDE………………..

3. PROCESS LAYOUT ALL MACHINES PERFORMING SIMILAR TYPE OF OPERATIONS ARE GROUPING AT ONE LOCATION. GROUPING IS DONE ON THE BASIS OF FUNCTION AND DEPARTMENTS ARE CREATED. MANY PRODUCT/SERVICE OF DIFFERENT TYPE IS PRODUCED AT A TIME. USEFUL FOR CUSTOMIZED PRODUCT.

4. FIXED POSITION LAYOUT THE PROJECT REMAINS IN ONE PLACE AND THE WORKERS AMD THE EQUIPMENTS COME TO THAT ONE WORK AREA. EXAMPLES OF THIS TYPE OF PROJECT ARE A SHIP, A HIGHWAY OR A BRIDGE WHERE THE MACHINES AND MEN HAVE TO WORK ON THE WORK SITE.

5. Combination layout ALSO KNOWN AS HYBRID LAYOUT. A COMBINATION LAYOUT IS A BLEND OF PROCESS AND PRODUCT LAYOUT. A COMBINATION LAYOUT IS POSSIBLE WHERE AN ITEM IS BEING MADE IN DIFFERENT TYPES AND SIZES. FOR E.G. : IN SOAP MANUFACTURING PLANT THE MACHINERY MANUFACTURING SOAP IS ARRANGED ON THE PRODUCT LINE BUT ANCILLARY SERVICES AS HEATING AND MANUFACTURING OF GLYCERIN WITH WATERV TREATMENT PLANT ARE ARRANGED ON A FUNCTIONAL BASIS.

7. OBJECTIVES OF FACILITY LAYOUT To provide optimum space to organize equipment and facilitate movement of goods and to create safe and comfortable work environment. To promote order in production towards a single objective To reduce movement of workers, raw material and equipmentTo promote safety of plant as well as its workers To facilitate extension or change in the layout to accommodate new product line or technology upgradation To increase production capacity of the organization An organization can achieve the above-mentioned objective by ensuring the following: Better training of the workers and supervisors. Creating awareness about of health hazard and safety standards Optimum utilization of workforce and equipment Encouraging empowerment and reducing administrative and other indirect work.
