The food processing industry is a subset of the manufacturing sector with unique challenges. Among these, ensuring food hygiene and preventing contamination are two issues of prime importance. Hence, designers have to overcome such challenges when designing facilities suitable for food processing. The paper formulates a model that simplifies the layout planning process for the food processing ...
A case study of lean, sustainable manufacturing 12 G. Miller; J. Pawloski; C. Standridge Manufacturing and quantitative analysis performed using tools such as mathematical optimization and discrete event simulation. In this regard, validation evidence for two premises is sought through a case study at a small furniture production company.
Nov 06, 2020·The International Journal of Advanced Manufacturing Technology bridges the gap between pure research journals and the more practical publications on advanced manufacturing and systems. It therefore provides an outstanding forum for papers covering applications-based research topics relevant to manufacturing processes, machines and process ...

Jun 01, 2013·2.2 Lean facility layout system Lean manufacturing is a production system born in Japan, based on the Toyota Production System. This was founded Layout Design for a Low Capacity Manufacturing Line: A Case Study
Jan 01, 2017·Appropriate arrangement of machinery in a manufacturing environment can have a positive impact on the productivity of a company. A detailed work study carried out at a furniture manufacturing company revealed that parts travelled long distances before the final product is produced owing to the positions of machinery and crisscrossing process flows.
Kamaruddin et al. (2011) made a comparative study on the effect of layout design on productivity through simulation techniques and proved that the layout design has an impact on production rate ...
Case Study # 3 – Surfactants, soaps and detergents 3 Table 1. Soapy definitions Surfactant = “Surface active agent”. A molecule that reduces the surface tension of water. It has a hydrophobic (non-polar, “fat-loving”) tail and a hydrophilic (polar, “water-loving)) head. Works as a foaming agent, emulsifier and dispersant. Micelle
Oil for soap making is the most profitable use; the fruit of Jatropha contain viscous oil that can be used for soap making (Openshaw, 2000). It is rich in palmitic acid, with high levels of hydrophobicity, and makes a soft, durable soap under even the simplest of manufacturing processes (Pratt et al., 2002). High oil content of
The Journal of Manufacturing Systems publishes state-of-the-art fundamental and applied research in manufacturing at systems level. Manufacturing systems are comprised of products, equipment, people, information, control and support functions for the economical and competitive development, production, delivery and total lifecycle of products to satisfy market and societal needs.
The objective of this research is to study plant layout of iron manufacturing based on the systematic layout planning pattern theory (SLP) for increased productivity. In this case study, amount of equipments and tools in iron production are studied. The detailed study of the plant layout such as operation process chart, flow of material and activity relationship chart has been investigated.

Dec 01, 2017·The results showed that production capacity is increasing as much as 37.5% with the addition of the machine and the operator, while material handling cost was reduced by improvement of the layout. The use of systematic layout planning method reduces material handling cost of 10,98% from initial layout or amounting to Rp1.229.813,34.
Mar 01, 2017·Production type is a relevant variable, because it links to the degree of complexity in all the relationships in Fig. 1: When products are engineered to order (ETO), the information intensity between product development and manufacturing will be higher, which may necessitate co-location of R&D and manufacturing (Ketokivi and Ali-Yrkkö, 2009).
Bar soap sales accounted for 62.7% of dollar sales for bath and hand soaps in 1998, making bar soap by far the largest segment in the hand and bath soap category. While liquids and gels for personal cleansing have become a fact of life, the traditional soap bar is fighting back, initially with translucent soaps and now with transparent products. A
