Abstract:

The use of the molds and the dies play a very important role in the field of industrial revolution. The overall production chain mainly depends upon the implications and applications of use of the dies in the manufacturing process. Thus, the quantity of production awfully affects the components, their subassemblies and assemblies to a larger extent. The plant layout generation is challenging, especially for the process oriented layout. The systematic layout planning (SLP) proposes as the infrastructure to solve a layout design problem in engineering-to-order company. The process involved in performing SLP is relatively straight forward; however, it is a proven tool in providing layout design guidelines in practice in the past few decades. The implementation of systematic layout planning tools in the industries reduces the overall cycle time for production, reduces the material handling cost and the distance travelled by the material during the production process. This gives the attempt for the makers to produce the new products with significant advances and practical applications in the fields, which would suggest the various ways and means to make the process more effective and efficient.
