3. PLANT LAYOUT STUDY A plant layout study is an  engineering  study used to analyze different physical configurations for a  manufacturing plant . It is also known as Facilities Planning and Layout. 3

4. DEFINITIONS OF PLANT LAYOUT

5. According to Moore “Plant layout is a plan of an optimum arrangement of facilities including personnel, operating equipment, storage space, material handling equipment and all other supporting services along with the design of best structure to contain all these facilities”. 5

6. “Plant layout is the  #arrangement of machines , work areas and service areas within a factory”. —George R . Terry “ Plant layout involves the development of physical relationship among building, equipment and production operations, which will enable the manufacturing process to be carried on efficiently”. — Morris E. Hurley From these definitions it is clear that plant layout is arrangement and optimum utilization of available resources in such a manner so as to ensure maximum output with minimum input. 6

8. Providing comfort to the workers and catering to worker’s taste and liking. Giving good and improved working conditions . Minimizing delays in production and making efficient use of the space that is available . Having better control over the production cycle by having greater flexibility for changes in the design of the product. OBJECTIVES 8

10. Process layout – are used to achieve a smooth and rapid flow of large volumes of goods or customers through a system. Product layout – are used to achieve a smooth and rapid flow of large volumes of goods or customers through a system. Project layout – Such layouts are also referred to as the fixed position layouts. In these layouts, the components, heavy materials, sub assemblies – all remain fixed at one place and the job is completed by movement of machines, men and tools to the location of the operations. 10 TYPES OF LAYOUTS

11. In project layouts, the item being worked on remains stationary, and workers, materials, and equipment are moved about as needed. Fixed-position layouts are widely used in farming, firefighting, road building, home building, remodeling and repair, and drilling for oil. In each case, compelling reasons bring workers, materials, and equipment to the “product’s” location instead of the other way around. 11

12. PRINCIPLES OF GOOD PLANT LAYOUT 12 A good plant layout is the one which is able to integrate its workmen, materials, machines in the best possible way. A good plant layout is the one which sees very little or minimum possible movement of the materials during the operations . A good layout is the one that is able to make effective and proper use of the space that is available for use. A good layout is the one which involves unidirectional flow of the materials during operations without involving any back tracking. A good plant layout is the one which ensures proper security with maximum flexibility. Maximum visibility, minimum handling and maximum accessibility, all form other important features of a good plant layout.
