Handbook Factory Planning and Design

Abstract

Future design of factories has first of all to consider abrupt changes in the market, which in turn need high responsiveness and flexibility with respect to volume and variants. In order to enable the enterprise to meet this challenges the chapter describes how to focus on limits, involvement and empowering of employees, fostering personal communication and networking inside and across the firm. The demographic change has to be answered by designing age-oriented workplaces. All measures have to be aligned with corporate culture, as well as focused on resource and energy efficiency.
