consists of all equipment, machinery, and furnishings within the structure.
LAYOUT
the configuration of departments, work centers, and equipment, with particular
emphasis on movement of work (customers or materials) through the system
Layout
Layout that uses standardized processing operations to achieve smooth, rapid, high-volume flow
Product Layour
Layout that can handle varied processing
requirements; such as milling, assembly & test, grinding, drilling, plating
Process Layout
Layout in which the product or project remains stationary, and workers, materials, and equipment are
moved as needed
Fixed Position Layout
Layout in which machines are grouped into a cell that can process items that have similar processing
requirements
Cellular Manufacturing
The grouping into part families of items with similar design or manufacturing characteristics
Group Technology
Using this space determination method, the present space requirements are converted to those required for the proposed layout.
Converting Method
It is the most complex Flexible Manufacturing System layout which allows material to move among the machine centers in any order and typically includes several support stations such as tool interchange stations, pallet or fixture build stations, inspection stations, and chip/ coolant collection systems.
Open-Field Layout
What is the objective of designing the product, process, and schedule in relation to facilities planning?
An efficient production system
Cellular layout is a type of layout which
a. Groups machines into department according to their function.
b. Groups machines into small assembly lines that produce families of parts.
c. Allows production of larger lots by reducing set-up time.
d. Encourages the use of larger and efficient machinery.
b. Groups machines into small assembly lines that produce families of parts.
The arrangement of all equipment, machinery, and furnishings within the structure.
a. Facility Planning
c. Layout Design
b. Facility Location
d. Handling System Design
c. Layout Design
This program is used to generate and evaluate plant layout which does not restrict the final layout to
uniform shape, nor does it allow fixing departments to certain locations, resulting in unrealistic
layouts.
a. ALDEP - Automated Layout Design Program
b. PLANET - Plant Layout Analysis and Evaluation Technique
c. CORELAP - Computerized Relationship Layout Planning
d. CRAFT - Computerized Relative Allocation of Facilities Technique
Answer: b. PLANET
_____ based on simple rules, have
been developed to provide good (not optimal) solutions to line balancing problems
heuristic methods
Which of the following is not a characteristic of product layouts?
a. Standardized product
b. Sequential arrangements of machines c. High material handling costs
d. Continuous production system
high material handling cost
Add tasks to a workstation in order of task
precedence one at a time until utilization is 100% or
is observed to fall
Incremental Utilization
Method
Appropriate when one or more task times is equal to or greater than the cycle time
