Abstract:

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.

Abstract:

This article focuses on the efficient planning involved in the manufacturing plant. Factory simulation software gives a sense of whether or not such a bottleneck would occur if the factory process were laid out as planned. It extrapolates problems of a particular line layout and forecasts the costs of a problem like a bottleneck. The digital factory software allows manufacturers to simulate factory layout digitally, in order to see how the plant would function under the proposed arrangement and to realize potential problems on the line. In addition to robots, employees themselves can be represented in a digitized version. In this way, engineers can figure out where employees should stand on the line and design workstations for them to both optimize their movements and to ensure they are not under any kind of ergonomic stress. Virtual factories can be planned together by people in different locations with the help of software that allows for fly-through.

Abstract:

This paper deals with the problem of finding the optimal plant layout design. Decision-making methodologies based on analytic hierarchy process (AHP) and data envelopment analysis (DEA) approach are applied in the selection of the best plant layout. New layouts are developed, in an efficient manner, based on the systematic layout planning (SLP). By using the multiple criteria, AHP is applied to weigh the qualitative performance measures. DEA is then used to determine the suitable layout design by measuring layouts’ efficiency, using the information of AHP and combining with the quantitative data. The utilization of the proposed procedure is applied to a real data set of a machining precision parts manufacturing company.

Abstract:

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.

Abstract:

The dust haze has posed a serious threat to residents physical and psychological health in China. PM2.5 is the main cause of dust haze. Recent studies on the distribution of PM2.5 points out that the uneven distribution of PM2.5 in city small scale landscape like residential area prevails. The landscape pattern, the maldistribution of pollution sources like motorways, architectural layouts, greening rate, plant community are considered to be the major causes. If residential areas site selection and landscape pattern are optimized, combining road network layout, form design, greening rate and building height are planned following design guidelines, the environment quality can be bettered and the exposure to PM2.5 can be reduced.

Abstract:

In this thesis we present an integrated formulation for production planning, facilities layout and process selection and provide two heuristics for solving the integrated problem. The traditional solution procedures to each of the subproblems are discussed. The decisions modeled in these three problems are interrelated and, in some cases, share overlapping data requirements. The integrated formulation provided is a mixed integer program. Solving this mixed integer program optimally is a hard problem. Thus, in this thesis we only provide heuristic solutions. An optimal branch and bound algorithm is suggested. Both heuristic solutions are demonstrated on a sample problem. The results of testing eight problems is recorded. Further suggestions for improving the heuristic solutions are also provided.

Abstract:

La seguente trattazione affronta e tratta in maniera dettagliata il problema della pianificazione e realizzazione degli impianti industriali. L’obiettivo del progetto è stato quello di riorganizzare il layout di un impianto industriale attraverso la procedura del Systematic Layout Planning. Definire un layout significa determinare la disposizione delle aree aziendali ottimizzando lo spazio disponibile. Questo processo coinvolge vari aspetti aziendali e non solo la produzione; in particolare è necessario curare gli aspetti logistici poiché sono prettamente collegati e vincolanti nelle scelte fatte in questa fase. La struttura dell’elaborato prevede una prima parte teorica in cui sono descritti i criteri e le metodologie alla base della progettazione, successivamente verrà lasciato ampio spazio alla descrizione del caso aziendale. Il progetto alla base della tesi è stato svolto presso Officine Gullo Srl ed ha avuto una durata di 6 mesi; il lavoro è stato condotto a stretto contatto con un altro studente e in team congiunto con il dipartimento di Ingegneria Industriale dell’Università di Bologna. Il progetto ha previsto la riorganizzazione della produzione in un unico plant a partire dai 4 stabilimenti attuali; il lavoro si è distinto in due macro-fasi di durata pressoché equivalente: - Analisi della situazione as-is: mappatura del flusso fisico e informativo, descrizione degli attuali plant e analisi dei flussi; - Sviluppo della fase to-be: dimensionamento singole aree e definizione possibili soluzioni con confronto qualitativo e quantitativo.

Abstract:

The term ‘Industry 4.0’ leads to many new possibilities like smart factory which is the amalgamation of manufacturing systems in a network to perform tasks more efficiently. It is becoming more and more important for the companies to develop smart factories and integrate the devices within such a facility to meet the demands of the evolving market. The next generation production systems are designed to share the data within the network, plan, and predict the solution for the future problems. One such technology under smart factory is 3D laser scanning resulting in point cloud of the production unit. The traditional way of documenting a layout is usually with the help of 2D computer aided designs which are susceptible to measurement errors and changes that are not updated regularly. With the help of point clouds, an as-is representation of the factories can be recorded which can be easily updated with changes in the real world. With advancements in virtual manufacturing, the need for visualization of the factories is increasing drastically. 3D Laser Scanning is one of the better ways of meeting this need, among many other applications. The focus of the thesis had been to create a method document for 3D laser scanning of factories and to discuss the future possibilities of it. The research approach used in this thesis was conducting observational study, interviews and testing of the method. One such future possibility is autonomous scanning and how it would be beneficial for a company like Scania which is developing smart factories. Based on the study carried out during the thesis, a document presenting the method developed is included in the report. The report also points out the applications and benefits of point cloud over traditional layout planning methods.

Abstract:

AbstractIn architecture, landscape architecture, and urban design, site planning refers to the organizational process of site layout. A fundamental step for site planning is the design of building layout across the site. This process is hard to automate due to its multi-modal nature: it takes multiple constraints such as street block shape, orientation, program, density, and plantation. The paper proposes a prototypical and extensive framework to generate building footprints as masterplan references for architects, landscape architects, and urban designers by learning from the existing built environment with Artificial Neural Networks. Pix2PixHD Conditional Generative Adversarial Neural Network is used to learn the mapping from a site boundary geometry represented with a pixelized image to that of an image containing building footprint color-coded to various programs. A dataset containing necessary information is collected from open source GIS (Geographic Information System) portals from the city of Boston, wrangled with geospatial analysis libraries in python, trained with the TensorFlow framework. The result is visualized in Rhinoceros and Grasshopper, for generating site plans interactively.

Abstract:

Abstract Plant layout deals with selection of the most effective arrangement of facilities or departments to achieve the best utilization of the available resources to produce a product. The plant layout problem is of great interest to both scholars and practitioners. Historically, two basic criteria have been most commonly used to generate an optimum layout. These two criterions are quantitative and qualitative. In this study an approach is introduced as a heuristic technique for combining the quantitative and qualitative aspects of the facility layout. The two objectives which may be contradicting, are minimizing material handling costs and maximizing a closeness rating measure. Assuming that the decision-maker is capable of responding to a paired comparison of alternatives, this algorithm is developed to, iteratively, reduce the feasible space of the weighting factor, which combines the two objectives. The algorithm terminates when the predetermined bounds on the weighing factor are reached. A graphical method is presented to help analyze the sensitivity of the optimum layout into small variations in the estimated value of the decision-maker’s preferred weight. The proposed approach has been applied in a case study, which is an exhaust system factory (Engineering Company for Manufacturing Exhaust Systems) located in the 6th. October City. This factory was founded as a small workshop for producing hand-made mufflers to meet the needs of the local automotive repair shops. In order to satisfy the needs of assembly plants of exhaust systems, a new location in the 6th. October City has been chosen, modern machinery supplied and scientific techniques followed to accomplish optimum layout. By applying this approach the best layout can be generated. In this layout warehouses were rearranged and a reduction the total material handling costs of 32% has been achieved.

Abstract:

Abstract In a manufacturing assembly line scenario, factory layout is one of the most crucial information used by manufacturing, facility and factory automation engineers for planning purposes. It is important for manufacturing, facility and operations team to work with most up-to-date layout when product, process and operational information on the shop-floor is constantly changing. There are four elements which governs availability of a real-time layout, these are nothing but Product Design, Manufacturing Process Planning, Layout Planning and Shop-floor. The layout must accommodate these changes coming from product design, process updates and shop-floor modifications on real-time basis so that there is no confusion amongst the stakeholders while referring layout data for their planning purpose. If we talk about the impact on the layout because of product design and process design, it is hardly managed real-time due to the isolated systems to manage these data. The integration of product, process and plant (PPP) is becoming crucial to facilitate collaboration and shrink new product introduction lead time where as real-time update from the shop-floor changes is expected in the era of digital transformation. One of the reasons why the integration of product, process and plant (PPP) does not happen is multiple isolated systems used to maintain this data, there are also challenges to feed data back from the shop-floor because of the non-availability of the thread between these objects. The paper is about how factory layout can be developed integrating product, process and plant (PPP) in a single dynamic environment and establish a digital thread between the product design, manufacturing process planning and factory layout to trigger real-time changes and facilitate digital twin of the factory. The methodology adopted here is to develop bill of material for manufacturing resources and align it with the product data management. This approach not only provides ability to maintain change control over resource objects but also helps in configuration management of the resource bill of material. The resources are grouped together as layout structure for the plant with each object required to manufacture the product. The detailed layout developed for the plant while integrating with product and process is used to establish connection with objects on the shop-floor through sensors and IOT (Internet of Things) devices to form digital twin. Such details added in layout which is So far there are no efforts to digitalize every information on the factory floor and able to generate Digital Twin of the factory by connecting physical objects with the digital objects. Paper will elaborate the approach to establish digital thread between PPP and how this can become foundation to drive digital twin of the factory.

Abstract:

Abstract Over the last decades LNG and bulk terminals have been constructed in many countries. Many of these terminals have been located in sheltered sites without significant influence of swell and wind seas. As the worldwide gas market continues to grow supplying domestic, industrial and power plant projects, there is a continuous interest in new LNG terminals. With the growing gas demand LNG terminals are planned at exposed sites where the need of a breakwater is important for the ability of the facility to maintain operations and to ensure survivability of the terminal infrastructure. Studies are carried out for LNG terminal concept with the main focus on the need for a breakwater protecting the facility which will have significant impact on the CAPEX (Capital Expenditure). The mooring layout of the FSU/FSRU and LNG carrier whether perpendicular or parallel to the breakwater in addition to the planned operations determine the protection area behind the breakwater. The objective of this study is to establish design curves relating the different environmental and terminal parameters such as wave conditions, berthing facility layout, protection area and breakwater layout. These curves are derived based on the results of numerical simulations for wave transformation process of offshore waves propagating inside the terminal area. More than 700 cases are carried out in this study considering a range of wave periods, breakwater lengths, breakwater type (caisson and rubble mound), facility area dimensions and two incoming waves direction, i.e perpendicular and oblique. The simulations are carried out using the software REFONDE which is based on resolving the mild slope equation for irregular waves. The results of the study are presented in the form of curves and generalized to be used by terminal developers, designers and contractors for general guidance in future projects. Up to the authors’ knowledge, such curves for the design of marine terminals are not available at present. From this overview, a design methodology is developed to determine breakwater layouts during the early planning phase of project considering wave conditions, facility layout and terminal operations.

Abstract:

The paper deals with the set-up and preliminary test-planning of an innovative mini cogeneration plant, in which exhaust gases coming from a 45 kWe rated turbogenerator directly feed an absorption chiller / heater with a 170 kWth chilling and a 160 kWth heating capability. Electric power is partly used on site to satisfy the plant auxiliary systems power demands and partly vectorised to the main building of the Engineering Faculty (15 km from the plant site) through the main electric grid. Thermal power is exploited locally for any season air conditioning of laboratory rooms. The paper describes the plant layout and the technical solutions adopted for installation and diagnostic purposes. This plant has been conceived even as a test-bed for Remote Monitoring (RM) and Plant Condition Monitoring (PCM) techniques development and testing. To this purpose dedicated diagnostics have been set up and mathematical models of all the main components are being developed to perform the identification of their operational parameters (e.g. efficiencies) on the basis of the acquired parameters. These are aimed at obtaining both a correct management of the plant and an early diagnosis of malfunctions to achieve the ability of following an on-condition maintenance philosophy to reduce maintenance costs and outage periods.

Abstract:

To meet expanding energy requirements, supercritical sliding pressure operation has become a major trend in recent thermal power plants. The technology for this operation was developed as high efficient thermal power plants with lower emission. We have continued to develop supercritical steam plant with sliding pressure operation to meet the demand for high efficiency coal-fired power plants that has arisen due to circumstances such as high fuel prices, exacting plant site requirements, and very strict environmental requirements. Because of our accumulated expertise and practical experience, we have received orders for several coal-fired engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC) projects. We have developed a smart design system for a coal-fired boiler building using an information technology (IT) tool for a large-scale and complex system design. We call this design system the Flexible Engineering System. This system is composed of three support functions: boiler general arrangement, boiler building layout, and bill of quantity estimation. First, the boiler general arrangement support function enables us to automatically create basic engineering specifications based on the required specifications. This system generates the basic engineering required using parametric engineering practice with parameterization of several required specifications. Second, the support function of the boiler building layout planning enables us to make 3-D models of the boiler building automatically. The 3-D models of the boiler, coal silos, and air and gas ducts are generated from the boiler general arrangement. The 3-D models of the steel structures are generated from loading data. The steel structure and brace models can even reflect the results of stress analysis. The 3-D models of large components, for example, the pulverizer, forced draft fan, etc., are arranged by selecting a matching model from the data library. The 3-D piping models are generated along the optimum path routing using a search method that combines dynamic programming with a layout rule-base. The 3-D floor and head-clearance model, which means a walk space and a maintenance space, are generated taking into consideration layout rules such as those concerning installation and maintenance. This support system can check for interference between the steel structures and each component. Third, the support function of the bill of quantity estimation makes it possible to estimate the quantity of materials from the specification data and configuration data of the 3-D models. The developed system is now under operation. The results indicate that it provides high engineering accuracy and reliability.

Abstract:

As one of the leading factors of China's economic growth, Shanghai has ranked atop of global metropolitan. Recently, Shanghai has just completed the compilation of a new version of Shanghai 2035 Master plan. Under the guidance of ‘outstanding global city’ of Shanghai, one of the most remarkable changes is the redefinition of cities and regions. This master plan introduces a five-level spatial layout structure system of 'Central Activity Zone-Main City Zone-Suburban Town Circle-Near Shanghai Collaborative Zone-Yangtze River Delta Regional Urban Agglomerations'. The Central Activity Zone is the core area of the main city, the Main City Zone is the key upgrading area around the main city, the Suburban Town Circle is the suburban development complex composed of the suburban New city-new town-ordinary town and village. the Near Shanghai Collaborative Zone emphasizes the strategic coordination and interactive promotion between Shanghai and its surrounding areas, and the Yangtze River Delta Regional Urban Agglomerations refers to Shanghai driving more than ten cities in the Yangtze River Delta to form a world-class metropolis area. In different spatial scales, this pattern has given a coordinated and unified spatial planning arrangement for urban and rural areas and different regions, which provides a guideline for the world's megacities' spatial planning. The disadvantage is that the multi-scale spatial governance system matched with the multi-scale spatial layout structure system has not yet matured in Shanghai and its surrounding areas, resulting in difficulties in planning and implementation. Now, China is commencing a large-scale reform of its spatial planning system, which offers a great opportunity for the implementation of new planning concepts.
