Abstract:  Based on the IE (industrial engineering) check list and  ECRS (eliminate, combine, rearrange, simplify) principles, a program analysis method is used to optimize the production process to solve the questions that happen on the processing sections of temper mill frame, for example, many times of transport, the long distance of transport, cross waste of logistics paths. Then, on the basis of simplifying the production process, the necessary auxiliary departments are added. By SLP (systematic layout planning method), the plane layout is optimized, with which the relationship among the operation departments analyzed to draw the corresponding diagrams, and considering the revising factors and the limitation of the actual condition, two feasible layouts worked out. And then the layout evaluation is conducted by weighted factor method, so as to determine the best plan. By doing so, 37 hours of production time is saved, and 15 meters of the logistics path shortened. Optimizing the design can reduce the production cost and minimize the security risks. It is easy to manage and ensure the service. Then, it improves the processing efficiency and provides some reference for the plane layout of manufacturing system.

Key words: temper mill frame, procedure analysis, systematic layout planning
