First of all, understand the production process of the factory.
First of all, understanding the production process of the factory is the basis of drawing a high-level factory layout. The production process of a factory generally includes raw material procurement, storage, processing, testing, packaging, distribution and other links, and all links should be rationally laid out in the planning diagram to achieve an efficient cycle of the production process.
Second, determine the principle of factory layout
Factory layout should follow the three principles of "technological process leading, logistics leading and fixed-point management". The technological process is to design the layout according to the product production process to make the production process smooth; The logistics-oriented policy emphasizes the flow direction of raw materials, semi-finished products and finished products; Fixed management emphasizes the fixed-point placement and positioning management of items.
Third, choose the right drawing tool.
When drawing the factory layout, you should choose the appropriate drawing tools. Commonly used drawing tools are AutoCAD, SolidWorks, EPLAN, etc. These tools are powerful and can meet the factory layout needs of different scales and needs. Beginners should learn basic tools such as AutoCAD and master them step by step.
Fourth, draw the layout of the factory.
1. Draw the general plan: First draw the general plan of the factory, including the factory area, workshop, office and rest area, with the ratio of 1: 100 or 1: 50.
2. Drawing the layout of the production line: Drawing the layout of the production line according to the production process of the factory. The production line should include processing area, storage area and logistics area. , so as to ensure smooth production links and avoid logistics bottlenecks.
3. Drawing equipment layout: Drawing equipment layout according to the type and quantity of equipment in the factory. Equipment should be grouped by category and purpose for easy management.
4. Draw the layout: The layout is an important part of the factory layout, which stipulates the location, quantity and state of the goods in the factory. When drawing the layout, the convenience of storage, handling and access should be considered.
Verb (abbreviation for verb) evaluates the layout planning of the factory.
After drawing the factory floor plan, it is necessary to evaluate the floor plan and check whether the layout in the floor plan is reasonable, whether each production link is smooth, whether the equipment layout is reasonable and whether the position management is effective. In the process of evaluation, attention should be paid to details, such as the distance between equipment, the width of the channel, the way of material handling, etc.
