Abstract:
The objective of this work is to investigate the possible improvements in the blanking plant layout which manufactures automotive parts. For this the systematic layout planning theory (SLP) is used. In this study, wiper pivot plate manufacturing process was studied. The detailed study of the plant layout includes, operation process simulation in flexsim software has been investigated. The new plant layout was designed and simulated on flexsim to compare results results mentioned below. Compared with the present plant layout, the new plant layout significantly decreased the distance of material flow, which has direct effect on material handling cost, manpower management and Production per day / Shift.
