In this study, the application of a systematic plant layout planning (SLP) to assist the optimum design of process areas and locations is proposed. The number of machines and space requirement in pulley factory is determined. The operation process chart, flow of material and activity relationship chart have been investigated. The relationships between machines, operation sections and material flow are used to determine the suitable position of each activity. The SLP method has been employed to design the two alternative plant layouts and compare the performances between new layout and present layout in term of material flow. The new plant layout is modified by moving a disassembly and surface finish that significantly decrease the distance of material flow, so it is effective increasing production.

A good study of layout becomes increasingly necessary due to the great competitiveness existing in the markets, since its use acts as a strategy for the companies, which obtain benefits like improvement of productive flow and reduction of lead-time. The research aims to propose a plant layout aimed at an optimal combination of the activities and resources of a small coffee factory. The methodology used is based on an adaptation of the Systematic Layout Planning (SLP), proposed by Muther (1973), in which a data collection was first made through bibliographical and field research, and then, applied some method tools convenient to work. The result presents a 2D layout proposal for factory installation with the help of AutoCAD software. It is concluded that even when not fully employed, SLP is effective for planning layouts.

This article aims to address the importance of proposing the appropriate location and the best plant layout for a small coffee factory. The focus of this article is directed to the planning of the factory plant, respecting the standards required by governmental agencies. For the sizing of the factory and determination of its physical arrangement, the qualitative approach was adopted in what concerns the understanding of the particularities of the layout, as well as the quantitative approach with regard to information on machines and labor. While bibliographical and documentary research supported the collection of data. The Systematic Layout Planning (SLP) method provided guidelines for layout design, and with the help of Autocad software, the plan was outlined. As a result, it is expected that the layout developed will meet the actual needs of the factory under study to meet the basic requirements of legislation, safety, ergonomics and productivity.

This paper proposes an efficient and flexible research methodology for selection of plant layout for optimum utilization of resources and deal with future change. It consists of two steps, one for generating the layout alterative and other for selecting the optimum layout, generation of layout with the help of SLP (Systematic Layout Planning) and selection of optimum layout by using MCDM tools and technique by considering weight of each criteria. this research framework consists of define the problem, data collection, generation of alternative, selection of criteria & criteria score, MCDM tools & technique and selection & maintain. this methodology allows flexibility to be incorporated into the design of a new plant layout or provide improvement in exiting one.

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.
