    An Analytical Approach to Machine Layout Design at a High-Pressure Die Casting Manufacturer
    (Springer-Verlag Singapore Pte Ltd., 2022) EMİR, OĞUZ; AKTİN, AYŞE TÜLİN
    Sahin Metal was founded in 1975 on a 7500 m(2) area in.Istanbul to supply high-pressure aluminum casting parts to a variety of industries, especially automotive manufacturers. 64 different products are produced with various routings through 14 workstations in the plant. Being a Tier 2 company, these products are then sent to Tier 1 firms and finally reach the leading vehicle manufacturers. Nowadays, increasing competition, changing customer demands, and quality targets bring the necessity of restructuring internal processes. In this regard, Sahin Metal plans to rearrange the existing machine layout to minimize the distance traveled between departments by taking into account the material flow. This study aims to determine an efficient machine layout design by implementing analytical approaches. The study is started by visiting the production facility and meeting with the company's engineers to determine the project roadmap. Following that, the data collection process is initiated, and ABC analysis is performed to define product classes. After this identification, two approaches are utilized simultaneously. The Hollier method is employed to find a logical machine arrangement. In addition, a mathematical model based on the Quadratic Assignment Problem (QAP) is developed to obtain the optimum machine layout. The developed integer nonlinear model is solved by CONOPT using GAMS software under various scenarios. Finally, these results are compared with the existing system, and a convenient layout design is proposed to the company.

    An Excel-Based Stock Management System for a Leather Label Manufacturer
    (Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2024) UÇUCU, EMİNE; ERASLAN, FATMA BEYZA; KAYMAKLI, ZEYNEB NUR; EMİR, OĞUZ; AKTİN, AYŞE TÜLİN
    This paper presents a proposal for an Excel-based digital inventory tracking system to address the operational challenges faced by a leather label manufacturer located in Istanbul, Turkey. The company is currently reliant on manual stock keeping and tracking methods for its leather labels and raw materials, resulting in significant functional difficulties due to the absence of a systematic and efficient inventory tracking system. The proposed system aims to enhance overall productivity and decision-making processes within the company. By implementing the new tracking system, the company can overcome the limitations of manual stock management, leading to improved efficiency and organization in inventory control. Furthermore, the installation of a barcode system is suggested to augment the tracking system’s capabilities, and the profitability of the proposed system is evaluated using three different financial analysis methods. This research contributes to the advancement of inventory management practices and provides valuable insights into the potential benefits of adopting digital solutions for stock control in the leather label industry. © The Author(s), under exclusive license to Springer Nature Switzerland AG 2024.
