Förslag av lämpligt layoutkoncept för specifik lågvolymproduktion

Sammanfattning: Companies are constantly striving for improvement and expansion. An effective approach is to manufacture your own products instead of buying them ready-made. The purpose of this study is thus to design the start-up of a smaller production with relatively low volumes and to see if the acquisition of an own production will be lucrative.   The study is based on two research questions where the first one provides an overview of essential machines and equipment for the production and how these should be placed relative to each other. The second question is connected to if the investment will be good for the company or not.   The study is based on a literature study and a document study which culminates in a current-situation analysis. This current-situation analysis provides a basis for the development of potential concepts for the production. These concepts are examined and analyzed to see what relevance they have seen to implementation and three concepts are finally established as the most prominent. One of the concepts where best suited for this specific production and were therefore chosen as the best concept although it meant a wall in the workshop had to be torn down. Together with the decision of the layout, it is shown that the investment was good for the company.
