What is Facility Layout?
is an arrangement of different aspects of manufacturing

in an appropriate manner as to achieve desired
production results.
BASIC LAYOUT TYPES
PRODUCT OR LINE LAYOUT
• Product type of layout
• Sequence of operation
• One product
• One type
• A single machine breakdown may shut
down the whole production line
EXAMPLE OF PRODUCT LAYOUT
PROCESS OR FUNCTIONAL
LAYOUT
• Low volume
• Function
• Type of operations
• Non repetitive jobs
EXAMPLE OF PROCESS LAYOUT
FI XE D POSITION LAY OUT
• Least important
• Fixed location
• Other materials, tools, machinery, man
power
• Boilers, hydraulic, steam turbines, ships
EXAMPLE OF FIXED POSITION LAYOUT
COMBINATION TYPE OF
LAYOUT
• Flexibility
• Hybrid layouts - mixture of 3 main
layout
CELLULAR
MANUFACTURING
• A type of layout where machines are
grouped according to the process
requirements for a set of similar items
that require similar processing.
FLEXIBLE MANUFACTURING
SYSTEM
• Is a processing method that can produce

parts, allow changes to be made to products
being manufactured, and handle varying
level of production.
WAREHOUSE/STORAGE LAYOUTS
• Warehouse layouts need to be designed with clearly
defined objectives that align with a firm's overall
corporate strategy.
RETAIL LAYOUTS
• is the strategic use of space to influence the customer experience.
How customers interact with your merchandise affects their
purchase behaviour.
• The primary objective of the layout is to increase sales and

profitability by increasing the customer's exposure to as many
products as possible.
LAYOUT PROCEDURES
CONSTRUCTION IMPROVEMENT
TYPE TYPE
INFORMATION REQUIRED FOR PROPER
PLANNING:
1. Type and quantity of labor required.
2. Dimensional plan of the space to be laid out.
3. Volume of work to be taken forms the space at present
and in future time.
4. Description of the operations, their sequence and
standard times in the production process.
5. Nature of machines and equipment needed to perform
the operations.
INFORMATION REQUIRED FOR PROPER
PLANNING:
6. Amount of material, buffer stock required at each
work station.
7. Size of finished and semi-finished products inventory.
8. Kinds communications and fire-exits necessary for
plant.
9.Special geographical and inspection requirements.
MUTHER’S SYSTEMATIC LAYOUT
PLANNING (SLP)
• Used to arrange workplace in a plant by locating
two areas with high frequency and logical
relationship close to each other.
• The process permits quickest material flow in
processing product at lowest cost and least amount
of handling.
• The need to keep distances for transfer of
materials between plant/storage units to a
minimum to reduce costs and risks.
• The geographical limitations of the site.
• Interaction with existing or planned facilities on
site such as existing roadways, drainage and
Utilities routings.
• Interaction with other plant on site.
• The need for plant operability and maintainability.
• The need to locate hazardous material facilities as far as
possible from site boundaries and people living in the local
neighborhood.
• The need to prevent confinement where release of flammable
substances may occur.
• The need to provide access for emergency services.
• The need to provide emergency escape routes for on-site
personnel.
• The need to provide acceptable working conditions for
operators.

Algorithmic
Approaches
•Relationship
Diagramming for
New Layouts.
Final layout by relationship
diagramming technique.
Pairwise Exchange Method
•The layout improvement is based on
minimizing the total cost of transporting
materials among all departments in a facility.
•The distance between departments is

rectilinear and is measured from the
department centroids.
Material Flow Matrix:
Total Cost of existing layout computed as:
TC1234 = 10(1) + 15(2) + 20(3) + 10(1) + 5(2) + 5(1) = 125

LAYOUT CHANGE
• Bad layout adds to the cost of a process, by causing
unnecessary movement.
The importance of attaining the best possible layout is
directly proportional to:
1. Weight, size or mobility of the product
2. Complexity of the product
3. Length of the process time compared to the handling time
4. The extent to which the process tends towards mass
production
• Reasons for re-layout are based on 3 types of changes:
1. Changes in production volumes.
2. Changes in process and technology.
3. Changes in the product.
• Symptoms that allow us to detect the need for a re-layout:
1. Congestion and bad utilization of space.
2. Excessive stock in process at the facility.
3. Long distances in the workflow process.
4. Simultaneous bottle necks and workstations with idle time.
5. Qualified workers carrying out too many simple operations.
6. Labor anxiety and discomfort. Accidents at the facility.
7. Difficulty in controlling the operations and personnel.
