    Lean Plant Layout Development Approach

    When developing a Lean Plant Layout design, meticulous planning and careful analysis are required to increase space efficiency. Before designing, it is important to analyze the management requirements and thoroughly understand the production process. Following that, we can proceed with data collection, process mapping, and analysis. So we have a proven approach consisting 8 steps that will help to create the plant layout design conceptual with optimized output, reduce expenses, and foster a secure work environment.

    LEAN PLANT LAYOUT DEVELOPMENT APPROACH

    Advantages of Tetrahedron's Lean Layout Approach

    A Plant / Factory layout design should be valid for at least 5 Yrs.

    Factory Layout Design is a critical investment for any manufacturing company, and a flow-focused – effective layout impacts business performances and profitability. Once a layout is frozen it’s almost impossible or very cost-intensive to change the layout especially after the civil works are completed.

    Tetrahedron considers these facts and tries to create multiple (4-5) simulation wherein the client can select the best possible layout with existing business requirements as well as all possible future plans.

    FACTORY LAYOUT DESIGN

    3D Plant Layout

    Visualize how 3D simulations created by Tetrahedron works as a perfect bridge between the Concept Level Layout and Final Post Construction layout. Tetrahedron uses multiple software for layout design and 3D simulations, that helps the clients to visualize how the future plant is going to look like post-implementation of Lean Layout with (GMP) Good Manufacturing Practices.

    An effective manufacturing factory layout plan is indispensable if production is to be efficient and costly. Our plant layout consultants excels in individually tailored plans that improve workflow, ensure safety, and maximize space utilization.

    What is Visual Management System?

    Visual Control and Visual Displays are used to visually operate a manufacturing facility called Visual Factory. Visual Management helps employees or workers to get quick information about the workplace and tasks being completed. Benefit of creating visual displays in your organization is to “Encourage workers to feel a feeling of responsibility for the workplace”. So that management can make decisions quickly based on the information.

    How to create Visual Management in Manufacturing Business

    In order to set up Visual Management in the manufacturing business, we have to train employees/workers, implement new solutions, and ongoing effectiveness monitoring is required. Visual Management involves strategically placing visual cues like signages, color-coded floor markings, and specified work areas to maximize productivity and safety that helps in maximizing productivity and safety.
