Abstract

Üretim ortamlarında operasyonların optimize edilmesi, maliyetlerin azaltılması ve verimliliğin artırılması açısından etkili bir tesis yerleşim tasarımı büyük önem taşır. Bu çalışma, Türkiye’deki bir mobilya üretim tesisine yönelik yerleşim alternatiflerini değerlendirmeye ve önceliklendirmeye odaklanmaktadır. Problemin çözümünde, bulanık AHP (analitik hiyerarşi süreci) ve bulanık EDAS (ortalama çözüme uzaklığa dayalı değerlendirme) yöntemlerini birleştiren entegre bir karar verme metodolojisi kullanılmaktadır. Bulanık AHP yöntemi, tesis yerleşim kararlarını etkileyen kriterlerin önem derecesini değerlendirmek için uygulanmaktadır. Bulanık EDAS yöntemi ise tesis yerleşim alternatiflerini değerlendirmek ve sıralamak amacıyla kullanılmaktadır. Model sonuçlarını desteklemek amacıyla, bulanık ARAS kullanılarak bir karşılaştırmalı analiz ve ağırlık değişimlerine dayalı bir duyarlılık analizi gerçekleştirilmektedir. Esneklik %35,56 ağırlık ile en önemli kriter olarak öne çıkmaktadır. Alternatifler arasında, A3 yerleşim seçeneği 0,9872 puanla en iyi performansı sergilemekte olup, bu değer %68,28’lik bir paya karşılık gelmektedir. Çalışma sonuçları; üretim mesafelerinin azaltılması, enerji verimliliğinin artırılması, darboğazların en aza indirilmesi ve montaj süreçlerinin hızlandırılması gibi önemli operasyonel iyileşmeleri ortaya koymaktadır. Bu araştırma, çeşitli endüstrilerde benzer optimizasyon sorunlarının ele alınmasında değerli bir kaynak niteliği taşımaktadır.

Optimization of facility layout design in furniture manufacturing using fuzzy AHP and fuzzy EDAS and comparison with fuzzy ARAS

Abstract

Efficient facility layout design is crucial for optimizing operations, reducing costs, and enhancing productivity in manufacturing environments. This study focuses on evaluating and prioritizing layout alternatives for a furniture manufacturing facility in Türkiye. An integrated decision-making methodology combining fuzzy AHP (analytic hierarchy process) and fuzzy EDAS (evaluation based on distance from average solution) is employed to solve the problem. The fuzzy AHP procedure is applied to assess the importance of criteria influencing facility layout decisions. The fuzzy EDAS procedure is used to evaluate and rank facility layout alternatives. To support the model results, a comparative analysis using fuzzy ARAS and a sensitivity analysis based on weight variations are conducted. Flexibility emerges as the most important criterion with a weight of 35.56%. Among the alternatives, layout option A3 demonstrates the best performance with a score of 0.9872, corresponding to a 68.28% share. The study results demonstrate significant operational improvements, including reduced production distances, enhanced energy efficiency, minimized bottlenecks, and accelerated assembly processes. This research serves as a valuable reference for addressing similar optimization challenges across various industries.
