Abstract

Material transfer is one of the most important activities in the production process activities and has a close relationship with the design of the layout of production facilities. A manufacturing company engaged in the manufacture and assembly of machine spare parts at the oil palm plant constraints in terms of material handling so that the decline in utility of the production floor layout and the increasing cost of moving raw materials. To improve the utility on the production floor using group technology method that is Rank Order Clustering (ROC) and Similarity Coefficient (SC). From the result of matrix rank calculation in pairs or between machines then SC method is the best layout design with decreasing material displacement moment by 56,86%. And to improve the layout of facilities on the production floor using BLOCPLAN algorithm that is the value of the degree of Adjency Score of 0.5317. This proposed layout provides a smaller displacement moment so as to shorten the processing time of all parts by 338 minutes and increase utility on the production floor.

Highlights

  • Material transfer is one of the most important activities in a production process and has a close relationship with the design of the production layout [1]

  • A manufacturing company engaged in the manufacture of machine spare parts and engine assembly used in oil palm factories has low utility constraints on the production floor associated with the completion of the product in accordance with predetermined targets

  • The settlement used in this study is to use ranking grouping algorithm or Rank Order Clustering (ROC) set the binary value for each row and column, rearrange rows and columns based on their binary value order and find the group and Algorithm of equation coefficient or Similarity Coefficient (SC) is derived from numerical taxonomy and attempts to measure the coefficient equation (SC) between pairs or parts of machines

Summary

Introduction

Material transfer is one of the most important activities in a production process and has a close relationship with the design of the production layout [1]. Material transfer is one of the most important activities in the production process activities and has a close relationship with the design of the layout of production facilities. Moving material activities in certain industries can reach 50% to 70% of production costs. This activity itself is an activity that is classified as "non-productive" because it does not provide the added value of material or material being removed. Many studies have reviewed the redesign on the production floor to minimize the distance and cost of material handling [4,5,6,7,8,9]
