Abstract | ||||
Today, a classical mills (natural-stone mills) are Commenly used in the Egyptian rural areas. It is a primitive method for food production and also costly. Recently; the advanced mills (metallic-disc mills) has been developed and the main design problems were solved. This study is an attempt for applying systematic layout planning Techniques in carrying out an advanced factory layout for the small metallic-disc mills in the rural areas of Egypt, as closed as possible to the ideal layout of the mills has been studied. Aquick review for the principles and objectives of the "Good plant Layout" has been presented. The available data about this work were collected from the past experience of the existing mills in Egypt Alternative layouts were carried out and the best two has been selected. Finally a detailed layout was proposed. A Suitable comparison chart of the total cost is proposed to help the engineers for deciding the best and the economical Site for building the mill. | ||||
