Workshop layout methods and principles

1) Regional division based on workshop functions.

Firstly, materials should be classified and quantified based on their processing technology characteristics, such as common straight lines, flat parts, irregular parts, curved parts, etc. Based on the production load and expected capacity of the existing production line, the expected production cycle of the workshop production line should be determined, and the expected functions of the workshop should be determined. Secondly, based on the expected functions of the workshop, define the workshop area and the scope of each area: raw material storage area, cutting area, clean material processing area, sanding area, assembly area, warehousing area, logistics transportation area, management office area, etc.

2) Construction of zoning based on the flow direction of materials in the workshop.

① Raw material storage area:

There are two main sources of raw materials for solid wood furniture: clean materials processed in the material preparation workshop and unprocessed raw materials. Therefore, it is necessary to establish a raw material storage area and distinguish between two types of raw materials.

② Cutting area:

Unprocessed raw materials need to go through the cutting process and be processed to the net material size. Generally, a cutting area is established after the raw material storage area, equipped with cutting, sawing equipment, and sanding machines for cutting and surface sanding.

③ Clean material processing area:

According to the shape characteristics and processing technology characteristics of the parts, the clean material processing area can be divided into bending and irregular part processing area, straight strip processing area, flat plate processing area, core board and desktop processing area, etc. The bending and irregular parts processing area mainly needs to be equipped with three-axis machining centers (drilling, milling), five axis machining centers (milling), profile milling (milling), double end tenoning machines (tenoning grooves, mortises), four sided planers (line shaping, four sided processing), three row drills (drilling), turning and milling machining centers (turning, milling), flat or vertical carving machines (carving), tenoning groove machining centers (end milling, tenoning), etc. Due to the common process flow and the need to adapt to large-scale production goals, the processing equipment in the straight strip processing area and flat surface processing area can be connected in series through a power conveyor belt to form an automated processing equipment connection. The processing of straight lines mainly requires the connection of equipment such as loading and unloading robotic arms, four sided planers, three sided milling equipment, upper and lower sanding machines, cutting saws, double end tenoning machines, three-axis machining centers, and four axis machining centers. The processing of flat parts mainly requires the connection of equipment such as loading and unloading robotic arms, six sided drills, and left and right hand milling sand edge machines. Equipment connections generally require a master controller to control the operating speed and equipment status of the entire line, and can achieve rapid mold changing technology for the production line by inputting part processing dimension drawings and process routes. The core board and desktop processing area need to be equipped with three-axis machining centers (drilling, milling), drilling and milling composite machining centers (drilling, milling), sanding machines (sanding), sanding machines (sanding), core board rotation lines (edge shaping), etc.

④ Assembly area and sanding area:

Part of the parts processed by clean material flow into the assembly area, while another part directly enters the sanding area. For bent parts, irregular parts, and assembled parts, manual sanding is now commonly used; For flat parts, they are usually already sanded by a sanding machine or edge sanding machine in the processing area without the need for secondary manual sanding.

⑤ Storage area:

After the finished product is sandblasted, it will eventually enter the finished product storage area. There are three main storage areas in the workshop: raw material storage area, work in progress storage area (usually located next to various equipment), and finished product storage area.

⑥ Logistics transportation area:

The logistics area of the entire workshop can be divided into two main parts, namely the Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) logistics area and the Rail Guided Vehicle (RGV) logistics area. The RGV logistics area mainly exists in the cutting area and the net material processing area (transporting net materials to various net material processing equipment), as well as the bending and irregular processing area and assembly area (due to the significant differences in processing technology of different irregular parts, it is impossible to form automated processing connections, so frequent material transportation is required). The AGV logistics area mainly exists between the storage area and the clean material processing area (transporting clean materials to the finished product storage area). To avoid crowding and collisions during AGV operation, the AGV logistics area can be further subdivided. In the layout diagram of T Company’s solid wood furniture digital machining workshop system. the AGV logistics area is divided into upper and lower parts. The upper part is mainly responsible for the transportation of parts in the bending and irregular part processing area, and the straight part processing area, while the lower part is mainly responsible for the transportation of parts in the flat board processing area, core board and desktop line processing area. And set up different charging locations according to zones to further avoid unnecessary collisions and crowding.
