Abstract—This research aims to improve the plant layout of pulley’s factory to eliminate obstructions in material flow and
thus obtain maximum productivity.
The present plant layout and the operation process of each section (i.e. sand mold, core ware house, core making, disassembly surface finishing, furnace, and inspection sections) have been investigated.
The problem in term of material flow of each operation section was indentified.
The result showed that disassembly surface finishing and inspection sections should be allocated to make the good material flow.
The suitable of new plant layout can decrease the distance of material flow, which rises production.
