Facilities Layout
Facility design and layout in the material handling business affects the productivity and profitability of your company. Bastian considers material handling techniques, machine layout, and plant structures to accomplish your company’s goals. Bastian also encourages the effective use of people, equipment, space, and energy when designing a facility layout.
Once the general operation, business plan, and design goals are well understood, Bastianwill work with your design team to go through several iterations and optimize your facilities layout. Several criteria are considered before the design begins.
Profiling the current movement of product and projecting material flow are very important constraints in the design process. Often multiple types of material handling technologies are considered based on their price performance ratios. Bastian’s designs are normally modular so that as business conditions change, we can quickly adapt with additional capacity. All drawings are typically done in AutoCAD in 3-Dimensions. This allows a 3-D perspective for both design and interference considerations.
