In the manufacturing company, an efficient production floor affects the productivity of the company. Thus, a well design production floor layout assists the company to achieve its objectives. In this regard, this study aims to design a new alternative production floor layout for the XYZ manufacturing company. The company facing the facility layout problem (FLP) where their workstation on the production floor was not located based on the activity-relationship. Thus, the company struggles to reduce the distance travel of their workers from one station to another by re-layout their production floor. The Systematic Layout Planning (SLP) method was used to determine the best new alternative layout for the company. Subsequently, the AnyLogic simulation software was utilized to test the effectiveness of the layout by using the number of steps as the parameter. As a result, it is found that the total number of steps of workers in the production floor can be reduced from 16,554 steps (in existing layout) to 15,956 steps (in new alternative layout).

The presented article deals with the issue of solving bottlenecks in the logistics flow of a manufacturing company. The Tx Plant Simulation software tool is used to detect bottlenecks and deficiencies in the company’s production, logistics and transportation systems. Together with the use of simulation methods and lean manufacturing tools, losses in business processes are eliminated and consequently flow throughput is improved. In the TX Plant Simulation software environment, using Bottleneck analyzer, bottlenecks were defined on the created simulation model and a method of optimizing logistics flows was designed and tested by introducing the Kanban pull system. This resulted in an improvement and throughput of the entire logistics flow, a reduction in inter-operational stocks and an increase in the efficiency of the production system as a whole.

To enlarge production to meet the market demand, its nessasery to improve the present facility layout for MTO (Make-To-Order) manufacturing enterprises. This paper tries to design a optimization method based on genetic algorithm for the facility layout of MTO enterprises. Firstly, SLP (systematic layout planning) was applied to analyze the material and non-material flow interrelation of the workshop. Secondly, a relatively optimum layout was determined after using fuzzy hierarchy estimation to evaluate the schemes. Then the scheme was optimized with genetic algorithm. The result shows that the optimized logistics transport load is obviously less than before. This design method based on genetic algorithm (GA) is proved feasible and effective in the optimization of facility layout.

PT. Japfa Comfeed Indonesia, Tbk menggunakan strategi make to stock dalam memenuhi permintaan konsumen. Proses safety stock tehambat dikarenakan penempatan gudang dan penyimpanan bahan baku yang tidak teratur sehingga terjadi backtracking di lantai produksi. Untuk itu, perlu dilakukan perencanaan dan perancangan ulang tata letak fasilitas di lantai produksi untuk lebih efisien. Perlu dilakukan perencanaan dan pengaturan tata letak fasilitas mulai dari perencanaan produk, meliputi proses produksi, kebutuhan mesin, kebutuhan tenaga kerja, kebutuhan ruang sampai dengan analisis biaya menggunakan Activity Based Cost (ABC). Untuk melakukan perbaikan layout maka dibuat 2 alternatif layout yaitu alternatif layout 1 dengan menggunakan ARC dan ARD sedangkan alternatif layout 2 dengan menggunakan from to chart. Berdasarkan hasil analisis dari perbandingan alternatif layout 1 dengan alternatif layout 2 maka didapat bahwa alyernatif layout 1  lebih tepat digunakan sebagai layout perbaikan dari layout PT. Japfa Comfeed Indonesia, Tbk.

Peralatan dan desain produk yang baik tidak akan berarti jika tidak terdapat perencanaan tata letak fasilitas yang baik. Masalah yang dimiliki oleh PT. Pilar Kekar Plasindo terjadi pada bagian produksi polyethylene kecil. Masalah tersebut disebabkan oleh produksi polyethylene kecil yang memiliki jarak transfer total material yang besar. Masalah-masalah yang terjadi pada produksi polyethylene kecil yaitu jarak antar stasiun, cross-movement, backtracking, dan mesin-mesin rusak yang masih ditempatkan di bagian produksi. Kondisi tersebut membuat biaya penanganan material dan jarak menjadi besar. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk menghasilkan desain tata letak fasilitas produksi yang dapat meminimalkan jarak dan biaya perpindahan material. Metode yang digunakan adalah Systematic Layout Planning (SLP). Pada penelitian ini tiga desain alternatif dibandingkan dan usulan tata letak fasilitas kedua terpilih karena mampu mengurangi total biaya transfer material sebesar 68,2% dan mengurangi jarak transfer material sebesar 59,6% dari tata letak fasilitas awal.
