layout

Problem I - 40 points A company produces three products in its production facility. The facility has four departments labeled A-D. The routing information, production quantities, and volumes for each product are given in the table below. a) (20 points) Construct the from-to matrix and recommend a flow pattern. b) (20 points) Evaluate the layout using the quantitative evaluation criteria shown in class. Assume all co values = 1.0; each square in the layout is 10 x 10 mts. Use rectilinear distances to measure distance between departments Product Production Quantities Routing (per day) 1 10 B-D-C-A 2 20 C-A-B 15 B-D-C-A-B Volume (compared to Product 1) 1 OS 2 H D Solution: a) From-To Matrix Recommended flow pattern: b) Evaluation of layout =
