Abstract

In the today?s dynamic automobile market the warehouse capacity system required the high level of flexibility and changeability. This study aims to improve the warehouse operations including Layout Optimization, Capacity and space calculations, infrastructure calculations and the material movement calculations. This study is carried out in the Tractor Assembling Plant (Johndeere India Pvt. Limited, Dewas Plant, Madhyapradesh). The plant is running on the capacity of 50 tractors per day. As per the forecast of India level the volume of production is comes out to be the 80 tractors per day so there is a need to re-optimize the current facility. Initially, the warehouse is designed for the 80DPR (Daily production rate) with considering two models but due to increase in the number of models and increase in number of variant the study is need to be carried out to facilitate the desired capacity and redefine the warehouse locations. The final output of the study will results improved material flow, optimized warehouse layout, improved process efficiency, efficient warehouse operation, minimum inventory.
