The main problems arising from the inadequate physical layout of the production area resources are presented, identifying process bottlenecks as well as their effects on the production system. In this way, the alternatives of physical arrangement for each company aiming at increasing productivity are proposed, based on the reduction of material flows, economies of time and movements, as well as better organization and control of jobs, among other improvements.
