چکیده:
The layout of a manufacturing facility/system not only shapes its material flow pattern and influence
transportation and operation cost, but also affects logistics and parts/machine assignment decisions. The
layout of manufacturing systems determines its structural complexity by virtue of its design configuration
characteristics. This paper introduces a new model and indices for assessing the structural complexity
of manufacturing systems layout in the physical domain. Six complexity indices, based on the physical
structural characteristics of the layout, have been introduced and formulated. They are layout density,
path, cycle, decision points, redundancy distribution and magnitude indices. An overall Layout Complexity Index (LCI) which combines all indices is developed using a novel method based on radar plots which
is insensitive to the order of plotting the individual indices. The use of the developed LCI is demonstrated using six typical types of manufacturing systems layouts and relevant guidelines are presented.
The developed model and complexity indices help design system layouts for least complexity and compare layout alternatives that meet the specifications, at early design stages. It supports making trade-off
decisions regarding manufacturing systems flexibility and complexity and their associated costs
