Optimization of FTL Layout Design Through an Asymmetrical and Restricted Plant Using GA

Abstract: One of the problems encountered in the design and implementation of a flexible transfer line (FTL) is the layout of the FTL in a restricted area. The layout of the FTL has an important impact on production cost. In this paper we propose efficient FTL layout design procedures for a FTL layout in an asymmetrical and restricted plant area. In order to find the layout of the FTL including the buffer size between each pair of FTL machines, an efficient FTL layout design procedure called a One by One Layout Method (… Show more

“…On the other hand, fixed shapes and input and output points have been considered to find the layout, such as Kim and Kim 24 focused on the facility that has predetermined shape and input and output points, and also, Qudeiri and Yamamoto 25 introduced a one-by-one layout procedure to find the efficient layout for production line components between a fixed start point and end point of the production line. Other research has focused on the dynamic case, for example, Conway and Venkataramanan 26 introduced genetic search technique to solve dynamic facility layout problem.…”

“…Irregular-shaped machines were also considered in other studies, for example, Yamamoto and Qudeiri 22 proposed concurrent engineering system to find the layout design of flexible transfer line components, and also, Bock and Hoberg 23 introduced a layout for irregular-shaped machines with transportation path.
