As seen in the process map in the attached excel document as well as the flow diagram below‚ the cycle time for the renewal process is driven by the time it takes to complete the bottleneck activity. In this configuration‚ the bottleneck activity is step three as it has the slowest flow rate per hour.

The importance of a layout would be better appreciated if one understands the influence of an efficient layout on the manufacturing function: it makes it smooth and efficient. Operating efficiencies‚ such as economies in the cost of handling materials‚ minimization of production delays and avoidance of bottlenecks—all these depend on a proper layout. An ideally laid out plant reduces manufacturing costs through reduced materials handling‚ reduced personnel and equipment requirements and reduced
