| Summary: | There are many layout problems in various kinds of manufacturing systems. Commonly, these layout problems are associated with the determination of the place where facilities such as machines and departments are in the factory. In fact, manufacturers are imposed high costs because of high levels of material handling. Therefore, minimizing the material handling cost is the main purpose of facilities layout problems. The aim of this study is making a comparison between two layout improvement methods, CRAFT and Graph Based for improving the layout of a manufacturing system. It shows that Graph Based method has had a better result in comparison with CRAFT based on its efficiency. |
