Types of Layout
1. Manufacturing units
a. Product;
b. Process;
c. Fixed Position
d. Combined

1.Manufacturing Layout
a. Product layout(line
Layout):
The materials move form one
workstation to another sequentially
without any backtracking or deviation.
Materials are fed into 1st machine and
semi-finished goods travel automatically
from machine to machine.
The output of one machine becoming
input of the next.
Eg: Food Processing Unit; Paper mill

Advantage
Disadvantage
1.Low material

2.Continuous work
3.Optimum floor
space
1.Manufacturing Layout
b. Process
(functional)layout:
In this type of layout machines of a
similar type are arranged together at
one place.
The work has to be allocated to each
department in such a way that no
machines are chosen to do as many
different job as possible.
Dr. Zargari
b. Process
(functional)layout:
Eg: Process oriented layout for an
hospital
Patient A - broken leg
ER
triage
room
Surgery
Laboratories
Radiology

ER Beds
Pharmacy
Billing/exit
Process Layouts
Process layouts are designed to process items or
provide services that involve a variety of processing
requirements.

1.Manufacturing Layout
c. Fixed (position)
layout:
Here, Major products being produced
is fixed at one location.
All other facilities are brought and
arranged around the work center.
Eg: Ship building, Dam construction,
flyover construction.

Advantage
Disadvantage
1.Save cost, as
customization is
necessary
1.Lengthy
production period,
heavy investment
cost
2.Several
operations are
carried out
simultaniously.
1.Manufacturing Layout
d. Combined layout:
In many manufacturing units, several
products are produced in repeated
numbers with no likelihood of
continuous production, combined
layout is followed.
