It may be more convenient for a hospital to place its freight elevators in the center of the building, for example, but doing so may block the flow of patients, visitors, and medical personnel between floors and departments.\r\n\r\nThere are four main types of facility layouts: process, product, fixed-position, and cellular.\r\n\r\nThe <strong>process layout<\/strong> arranges workflow around the production process. All workers performing similar tasks are grouped together. Products pass from one workstation to another (but not necessarily to every workstation). For example, all grinding would be done in one area, all assembling in another, and all inspection in yet another. The process layout is best for firms that produce small numbers of a wide variety of products, typically using general-purpose machines that can be changed rapidly to new operations for different product designs. For example, a manufacturer of custom machinery would use a process layout.\r\n\r\n[caption id=\"attachment_13069\" align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"1024\"]<img class=\"wp-image-13069 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com\/courses-images\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3006\/2017\/02\/11211202\/ProcessLayout-1024x404.png\" alt=\"Process layout, production of kitchen cabinets shows job x, and job y.
