Abstract:
Nowadays, warehouse layout problems become a common problem for every organization, especially in conduit businesses. Finding an appropriate space to store the products, transporting the products in and out of the warehouse or even an effective way of using material-handling, for example, an overhead crane, is the most relevant topics that can cause a lot of costs and time for the organizations. To resolve these problems, the simulation is built to see the consequences of altering the position of conduit in the warehouse. For each layout design in the simulation is built based on the information provided by the conduit producer organization in Thailand. The results of the simulation are the layouts that provide the less distance involved and time usage for transporting the conduits in and out of the warehouse which leads directly to reduce the costs in the organization.
