Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of intelligent decision-making technology, and in particular to a workshop layout planning method, apparatus, equipment and medium. Background Technology
[0002] Currently in the industrial manufacturing sector, small and micro enterprises, due to their small size and insufficient financial resources, cannot afford to rent or purchase large workshop spaces. Therefore, they often cram multiple pieces of equipment into a small space. This results in irregular equipment placement, chaotic accumulation of raw materials and finished products, and a particularly common dirty and disorganized workshop environment. Irregular equipment placement further leads to low utilization of space resources, reducing the value of already limited space. The chaotic accumulation of raw materials and finished products frequently results in lost or damaged items, and the poor workshop environment creates numerous safety hazards, potentially even leading to production accidents.
[0003] The inventors realized that these problems largely stemmed from small and micro-enterprise owners' lack of knowledge or understanding regarding production layout, making it impossible for them to design reasonable layouts to address these issues. Summary of the Invention
[0004] This invention provides a workshop layout planning method, apparatus, computer equipment, and medium to solve the technical problems faced by small and micro manufacturing enterprises, such as unreasonable equipment placement, chaotic stacking of finished products and raw materials, and poor workshop environment, which lead to low production efficiency and even production accidents.
[0005] Firstly, a workshop layout planning method is provided, including:
[0006] Obtain workshop and equipment parameters;
[0007] Based on the workshop parameters and the equipment parameters, each piece of equipment is filled into the workshop by graphical splicing to minimize the total space occupied by each piece of equipment, thus obtaining the initial workshop layout;
[0008] Based on the preset standard workshop layout, the initial workshop layout is optimized to obtain the intermediate workshop layout;
[0009] If there is still remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout, the remaining space is redistributed to obtain the target workshop layout.
[0010] Secondly, a workshop layout planning device is provided, comprising:
[0011] The data acquisition module is used to obtain workshop parameters and equipment parameters;
[0012] The layout module is used to fill each piece of equipment in the workshop by graphical splicing based on the workshop parameters and the equipment parameters, so as to minimize the total space occupied by each piece of equipment and obtain the initial workshop layout.
[0013] The layout optimization module is used to optimize the initial workshop layout according to the preset standard workshop layout to obtain the intermediate workshop layout.
[0014] The space reallocation module is used to reallocate the remaining space of the intermediate workshop layout to obtain the target workshop layout.
[0015] Thirdly, a computer device is provided, including a memory, a processor, and a computer program stored in the memory and executable on the processor, wherein the processor executes the computer program to implement the steps of the above-described workshop layout planning method.
[0016] Fourthly, a computer-readable storage medium is provided, the computer-readable storage medium storing a computer program, which, when executed by a processor, implements the steps of the above-described workshop layout planning method.
[0017] In the aforementioned workshop layout planning method, device, computer equipment, and medium, the solution firstly involves filling each piece of equipment within the workshop using graphical splicing based on workshop and equipment parameters, minimizing the total space occupied by each piece of equipment to obtain an initial workshop layout. This achieves greater resource utilization within a limited space. Secondly, the initial workshop layout is optimized based on a preset standard workshop layout to obtain an intermediate workshop layout, forming a smooth and complete production line. This allows small and micro-sized manufacturing enterprises to have a standardized production layout structure similar to that of large enterprises, optimizing the workshop production environment and improving workshop production efficiency. Finally, the remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout is redistributed to obtain the target workshop layout. This allows for the allocation of more space to some equipment, providing flexibility in equipment space and facilitating the separation of finished products and raw materials, making the entire production line smoother and further optimizing the workshop production environment and improving workshop production efficiency. Alternatively, additional equipment can be introduced, further improving the space utilization of the workshop. Attached Figure Description

[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0028] As mentioned in the background section, the inventors discovered that small and micro enterprises, due to their small size and insufficient financial strength, are unable to rent or purchase large workshop spaces. As a result, they often cram multiple pieces of equipment into a small space. This often leads to irregular equipment placement, chaotic accumulation of raw materials and finished products, and a dirty and messy workshop environment, which can result in low utilization of space resources and even production accidents.
[0029] To address the aforementioned problems, the present invention provides a workshop layout planning method, a workshop layout planning device, a computer device, and a computer-readable storage medium. These embodiments will be described in detail below.
[0030] The workshop layout planning method provided in this embodiment of the invention can be applied to, for example... Figure 1In this application environment, the client communicates with the server via a network. The server can receive workshop and equipment information uploaded by the user from the client, and based on this information, perform graphic stitching to fill the workshop with equipment while maximizing space utilization, thus realizing the spatial layout design of the equipment within the workshop. The server can also optimize the spatial layout design of the equipment within the workshop according to standard workshop layout planning patterns, forming a smooth and complete production line, allowing small and micro-sized manufacturing enterprises to have a standardized production layout structure like large enterprises. The server can also reallocate the remaining space in the workshop, allocating more space to some equipment, or introducing additional equipment to complete the workshop layout planning. Finally, the server feeds back the obtained workshop layout planning pattern to the client, allowing the client user to perform the actual layout design based on the feedback.
[0031] The client can include, but is not limited to, various personal computers, laptops, smartphones, tablets and portable wearable devices, while the server can be implemented using a standalone server or a server cluster consisting of multiple servers.
[0032] The present invention will now be described in detail through specific embodiments.
[0033] First, please refer to Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 A flowchart illustrating the workshop layout planning method provided by the present invention includes the following steps:
[0034] S1: Obtain workshop parameters and equipment parameters.
[0035] In the workshop layout planning method provided by this invention, firstly, it is necessary to obtain workshop parameters reflecting the characteristics of workshop parameters and equipment parameters reflecting the characteristics of equipment parameters. The workshop parameters include at least the workshop's plan view and dimensions, and the equipment parameters include at least the equipment's name, model, quantity, plan view, dimensions, and technological purpose. The workshop's plan view includes both the internal layout and the workshop's entrances and exits.
[0036] In step S1, the workshop parameters and equipment parameters can be actively uploaded by the user through the input device, or they can be collected by other data acquisition devices on site (such as laser scanners) and by service providers (such as network data downloads), and there is no limitation here.
[0037] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the user designs a steel plate processing workshop. The external dimensions of the workshop to be designed and planned are 15000×22000×6000mm. The workshop has at least two entrances and exits. The equipment to be designed and planned includes 2 fiber optic cutting machines and 8 vertical machining centers. The external dimensions of the fiber optic cutting machines are 8900×3000×2100mm, and the external dimensions of the vertical machining centers are 3600×3000×3500mm.
[0038] The workshop parameters were collected, yielding the following: the workshop's plan view is rectangular, with dimensions of 15000×22000mm. The equipment parameters were also collected, yielding the following: Equipment 1 is named a fiber optic cleaver, its model number is XXN, the quantity is 2, its plan view is rectangular, and its dimensions are 89000×3000mm; Equipment 2 is named a vertical machining center, its model number is XXM, the quantity is 8, its plan view is rectangular, and its dimensions are 36000×3000mm.
[0039] In this invention, the external dimensions of the workshop or equipment are A×B×Cmm, representing a length of Amm, a width of Bmm, and a height of Cmm; the planar dimensions of the workshop or equipment are A×Bmm, representing a length of Amm and a width of Bmm.
[0040] It should be noted that the external dimensions of the equipment to be designed need to match the external dimensions of the workshop entrance and exit, as well as the overall dimensions of the workshop, so that the equipment can be easily moved in or out of the workshop and placed normally within the workshop.
[0041] S2: Based on workshop parameters and equipment parameters, fill each piece of equipment into the workshop by graphical splicing to minimize the total space occupied by each piece of equipment, thus obtaining the initial workshop layout.
[0042] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3 As shown, step S2, which involves designing the spatial layout of equipment within the workshop by stitching together graphics after obtaining workshop and equipment parameters, further includes steps S21 to S23.
[0043] S21: Based on the planar shape and dimensions of the workshop, construct a planar graphic model of the workshop.
[0044] S22: Based on the planar graphic of the device and the planar dimensions of the device, construct a planar graphic model of the device.
[0045] In steps S21 to S22, under the premise that "the height of the equipment is less than the height of the workshop", a planar graphic model of the workshop and equipment is constructed based on the obtained planar image and planar dimensions.
[0046] It should be noted that the height of the equipment to be laid out must be less than the height of the workshop. If the height of some equipment is greater than or equal to the height of the workshop, it will be relatively difficult to move the equipment in or out of the workshop, and the equipment cannot be laid out in the workshop, or even if it is laid out in the workshop in a non-orthodox manner, it may not be able to work properly.
[0047] S23: According to the matching and fitting of edges and corners, fill the planar graphic models of each device into the planar graphic model of the workshop, and centrally set the planar graphic models of each device based on graphic splicing to complete the filling layout of each device in the workshop and obtain the initial workshop layout.
[0048] In detail, in step S23, under the basic premise that the planar graphic models of each device are filled within the planar graphic model of the workshop, the planar graphic models of each device are centrally set in some locations within the workshop based on graphic splicing methods, so as to reserve as much remaining space as possible within the workshop and improve the space utilization rate of the workshop.
[0049] It should be noted that in some embodiments of the present invention, the planar graphic model of the workshop or equipment is not necessarily a rectangle, but has rounded corners or non-right angles such as acute angles or obtuse angles. When splicing graphics, if all corners of the equipment cannot match a corner of the workshop or a corner of other equipment, the splicing layout can be carried out only according to the matching of the edges.
[0050] S3: Optimize the initial workshop layout based on the preset standard workshop layout to obtain the intermediate workshop layout.
[0051] In step S2, simply using graphical splicing to plan the layout of equipment within the workshop, while improving space utilization, may not result in a reasonable relative placement of multiple devices. For example, two devices with upstream and downstream production processes may be far apart or blocked by other equipment; the inlet or outlet of a production line composed of multiple devices may be far from the workshop entrance or exit, or the workshop entrance or exit may be blocked by equipment; and the space reserved for materials or operators for certain devices may be very small. If the relative placement of equipment is unreasonable, even if the space utilization of the workshop is improved, the actual production efficiency of the production line will still not be improved.
[0052] Therefore, in step S3, the data of the production workshop layout of large, mature manufacturing enterprises is used as a reference standard, and it is compared with the initial workshop layout obtained by the graphic splicing algorithm in step S2. The actual scenario is used to supplement the scenarios that the algorithm could not take into account.
[0053] In some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 4 As shown, step S3, which optimizes the initial workshop layout based on the preset standard workshop layout to obtain the intermediate workshop layout, specifically includes steps S31 to S33.
[0054] S31: Obtain the various production processes involved in the workshop, analyze them in conjunction with the process uses of the equipment and the production processes, and arrange the upstream and downstream related equipment according to the process sequence in a centralized and orderly manner to form a production line.
[0055] In detail, in step S31, for technical problems such as two devices that are related upstream and downstream in the production process being far apart or blocked by other devices, the devices that are related upstream and downstream in the process are set up in a centralized and orderly manner according to the process sequence to form a reasonable production line.
[0056] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the user needs to design a steel plate processing workshop to process steel plates into steel drums. This requires processing the drum body, drum lid, and drum lid fasteners separately. The drum body involves processes such as cutting, rolling, stamping, milling, and chamfering. The drum lid involves processes such as cutting, rolling, stamping, milling, and chamfering. The drum lid fasteners involve processes such as cutting, rolling, milling grooves, and chamfering. The equipment to be designed and planned includes 2 fiber optic cutting machines, 2 punch presses, and 6 vertical machining centers. The fiber optic cutting machines are used for cutting processes, the punch presses are used for stamping processes, and the vertical machining centers are used for rolling, milling, milling grooves, and chamfering processes.
[0057] In this embodiment, three independent production lines can be designed based on the three independent components: the barrel body, the barrel lid, and the barrel lid fasteners. The barrel body production line includes one fiber optic cleaver, one punch press, and two vertical machining centers; the barrel lid production line includes one fiber optic cleaver, one punch press, and two vertical machining centers; and the barrel lid fastener production line includes one fiber optic cleaver and two vertical machining centers. The positions of the equipment on each production line can be determined according to the production process sequence of the corresponding product (barrel body, barrel lid, and barrel lid fasteners), with one vertical machining center handling a portion of the process. The barrel lid fastener production line can share the same fiber optic cleaver with either the barrel body production line or the barrel lid production line.
[0058] In this embodiment, a main production line can be designed based on the common parts of the production processes of the three components: barrel body, barrel lid, and barrel lid fastener. This main production line can include more equipment and be responsible for some processes of the barrel body, barrel lid, and barrel lid fastener. A secondary production line can be designed based on the different parts of the production processes of the three components: barrel body, barrel lid, and barrel lid fastener. This secondary production line is responsible for the remaining processes of the barrel body, barrel lid, and barrel lid fastener.
[0059] In step S31, based on the correlation of the production process, the various equipment are set up in a centralized and orderly manner according to the process sequence to form a reasonable production line. The intermediate flow of products during the processing is faster and more efficient, which facilitates the orderly processing of products and improves the production efficiency of the workshop.
[0060] S32: Adjust the distribution of the production line within the workshop, placing the production line inlet and outlet close to the workshop entrance and exit respectively.
[0061] In detail, in step S32, for technical problems such as the inlet (outlet) of a production line consisting of multiple devices being far from the workshop entrance or exit, or the workshop entrance or exit being blocked by equipment, the inlet and outlet of the production line are adjusted to be located closer to the workshop entrance or exit without completely blocking the workshop entrance or exit, so as to facilitate the loading of raw materials or the unloading of products.
[0062] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the workshop has only one entrance and exit, with the inlet of the production line located close to the entrance and exit, and the outlet of the production line also located close to the entrance and exit. The entrance and exit are used for both the loading of raw materials and the unloading of products.
[0063] In another optional embodiment of the present invention, the workshop has two entrances and exits, a first entrance and an exit, and a second entrance and exit. The inlet of the production line is located near the first entrance and exit of the workshop, which is used for the loading of raw materials, and the outlet of the production line is located near the second entrance and exit of the workshop, which is used for the loading of products.
[0064] In another optional embodiment of the present invention, the workshop has three or more entrances and exits, with the inlet of the production line located near the first entrance and exit of the workshop, the outlet of the production line located near the second entrance and exit of the workshop, and the third entrance and exit or other entrances and exits used for the entry and exit of operators (workers) and equipment.
[0065] S33: Reserve space for raw materials at the inlet of the production line, reserve space for products at the outlet of the production line, and reserve space for operators at the operating stations on the production line.
[0066] In detail, in step S33, for technical problems such as the small space reserved for materials or the small space reserved for operators in some equipment, space is reserved at the inlet of the production line as space for stacking raw materials, space is reserved at the outlet of the production line as space for stacking products, and space is reserved at the operating station of the production line as space for the operation of operators.
[0067] S4: If there is still remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout, the remaining space is redistributed to obtain the target workshop layout.
[0068] In detail, such as Figure 5 As shown, in step S4, it is determined whether there is any remaining space in the optimized intermediate workshop layout: if there is any remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout, the remaining space is redistributed to the equipment in the workshop or the additional equipment introduced; if there is no remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout, the process ends.
[0069] In detail, such as Figure 5 As shown, the steps for reallocating the remaining space to obtain the final target workshop layout further include:
[0070] S41: If the remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout is less than or equal to the space threshold, then the remaining space will be allocated to equipment in the production line whose usage frequency is greater than or equal to the frequency threshold.
[0071] In step S41, if the remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout is small (less than or equal to the space threshold), that is, the remaining space in the workshop is limited and insufficient to accommodate additional equipment, the remaining space is allocated to equipment used more frequently in the production line (greater than or equal to the frequency threshold), thus allocating more space for high-frequency equipment.
[0072] More specifically, step S41, which allocates the remaining space to equipment used in the production line at a frequency greater than or equal to a frequency threshold, further includes:
[0073] S411: Obtain the workshop's production plan for a preset time period. The production plan includes product type, product quantity, and equipment involved in the product.
[0074] S412: For each device, calculate the ratio of the sum of the quantities of products involved in the device to the total quantity of all products to obtain the usage frequency of the device.
[0075] S413: For each device, compare its corresponding usage frequency with the frequency threshold one by one, and identify the devices whose usage frequency is greater than or equal to the frequency threshold, and record them as special devices.
[0076] S414: Based on the remaining space and the original space occupied by special equipment, adjust the space occupied by special equipment to allocate more space for special equipment.
[0077] In steps S411 to S413, the production plan of the workshop is first obtained to determine the product type, quantity of finished products and equipment involved in product processing; then, for each piece of equipment, its usage frequency in the production plan is calculated; finally, the usage frequency of each piece of equipment is compared with the frequency threshold to find the equipment with higher usage frequency.
[0078] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the workshop is a steel plate processing workshop. The production plan of the workshop within a preset time period is to produce 500 steel drums, 800 steel knives and 1000 steel bars. Only the steel drums involve the stamping process. Therefore, the only punch press in the workshop has a usage frequency of (500) / (500+1000+800)=0.217, while the frequency threshold is 0.6. The usage frequency of the punch press is less than the frequency threshold, that is, the usage frequency of the punch press is low and it cannot be used as a special equipment and allocated to more space.
[0079] In step S414, the remaining space can be allocated to special equipment and the spatial position of the special equipment can be adjusted according to the distribution of equipment usage frequency, which further includes:
[0080] S4141: Obtain the usage frequency of each special device.
[0081] S4142: For each special device, assign ideal weight factors to each special device according to its usage frequency.
[0082] S4143: For each specific device, calculate the ratio of its ideal weight factor to the sum of the ideal weight factors of all specific devices to obtain its actual weight factor.
[0083] S4144: For each special device, according to the corresponding actual weight factor, a portion of the remaining space is allocated to the special device, and the space occupied by the special device is adjusted based on the allocated portion of the remaining space and the original space occupied by the special device.
[0084] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, three special pieces of equipment are selected based on the production plan of the steel plate processing workshop within a preset time period: a single punch press with a usage frequency of 0.71; a second vertical machining center with a usage frequency of 0.65; and a fifth vertical machining center with a usage frequency of 0.8. An ideal weighting factor of 3 is assigned to the punch press, 2 to the second vertical machining center, and 4 to the fifth vertical machining center. The actual weighting factors are calculated to be 0.33 for the punch press, 0.22 for the second vertical machining center, and 0.44 for the fifth vertical machining center. Based on the distribution of the actual weighting factors, the remaining space in the workshop is divided, with 0.33 of the remaining space allocated to the punch press, 0.33 to the second vertical machining center, and 0.44 to the fifth vertical machining center. At the same time, based on the division of the remaining space and the original space occupied by the punch press, the space occupied by the punch press is adjusted, such as fine-tuning the position of the punch press.
[0085] S42: If the remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout is greater than the space threshold, then introduce additional equipment into the workshop and allocate the remaining space to the additional equipment.
[0086] In step S42, if the remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout is large (greater than the space threshold), meaning the remaining space in the workshop is sufficient to accommodate additional equipment, then the remaining space is allocated to the additional equipment introduced into the workshop to further improve the space utilization rate of the workshop, which includes:
[0087] S421: Obtain the third parameter, which includes at least the planar graphic of the additional equipment, the planar dimensions of the additional equipment, and the process purpose of the additional equipment.
[0088] S422: Based on the planar graphic of the additional device and the planar dimensions of the additional device, construct a planar graphic model of the additional device.
[0089] S423: Based on the matching of edges and corners, stitch together the planar graphic model of the additional device to fill the remaining space, thus completing the layout of the additional device in the remaining space.
[0090] S424: Analyze the process use of the additional equipment in conjunction with the production process of the production line, and set the additional equipment close to the inlet or outlet of the production line according to the upstream and downstream relationship of the process use.
[0091] S425: Reserve space for materials and personnel for additional equipment.
[0092] In steps S421 to S423, similar to the graphic splicing and filling of the previous equipment, the introduced additional equipment is filled and placed in the remaining space of the workshop based on the graphic splicing algorithm; in step S424, referring to the process sequence relationship between the introduced additional equipment and the production line in the workshop, the additional equipment is placed near the inlet or outlet of the production line to make the additional equipment distributed in a reasonable and orderly manner; in step S425, if there is sufficient remaining space, reserved space for materials and space for operators is allocated for the additional equipment.
[0093] After obtaining the target workshop layout through step S4, the workshop layout planning method provided by the present invention further includes the following steps:
[0094] S5: Based on the target workshop layout, configure the layout of each piece of equipment within the workshop.
[0095] In step S5, the equipment to be laid out (and any additional equipment) is moved into the workshop, and the layout design of each piece of equipment (and additional equipment) in the workshop is carried out according to the layout planning pattern of the workshop.
[0096] S6: Monitor the operation of each piece of equipment in the workshop in real time and obtain the actual production efficiency of the workshop within the target time period.
[0097] In step S6, the operation of each piece of equipment in the workshop is monitored by IoT devices. After saving the user's workshop layout planning mode, the online workshop is constructed by combining the real-time monitoring data transmitted by the IoT devices and using digital twin mapping technology. This presents the real-time operation of each piece of equipment in the workshop to the user online, facilitating the user's remote control and management. At the same time, the actual production efficiency of the workshop within the target time period is obtained.
[0098] S7: If the actual production efficiency of the workshop is less than the ideal production efficiency of the workshop, the layout of the target workshop will be updated and optimized.
[0099] In step S7, the actual production efficiency of the workshop is compared with the ideal production efficiency of the workshop. If the actual production efficiency of the workshop is equal to or slightly less than the ideal production efficiency of the workshop, it indicates that the layout planning mode of the workshop is reasonable and effective. If the actual production efficiency of the workshop is much less than the ideal production efficiency of the workshop, it indicates that the layout planning mode of the workshop is not ideal and does not conform to the actual production situation. It is necessary to repeat the above series of steps to update and optimize the layout of the target workshop to obtain a new layout planning mode.
[0100] As can be seen from the above workshop layout planning method, firstly, based on workshop parameters and equipment parameters, a graphical splicing is performed to fill the workshop with equipment while maximizing the use of workshop space, resulting in an initial workshop layout. This achieves greater resource utilization within a limited space. Secondly, based on the standard workshop layout, the equipment in the initial workshop layout is optimized to obtain an intermediate workshop layout, forming a smooth and complete production line. This allows small and micro-sized manufacturing enterprises to have a standardized production layout structure like large enterprises, optimizing the workshop production environment and improving workshop production efficiency. Finally, the remaining space in the intermediate workshop layout is redistributed to obtain the target workshop layout. This allows for more space to be allocated to some equipment, providing flexibility in equipment space and facilitating the stacking and differentiation of finished products and raw materials. This makes the entire production line smoother, further optimizing the workshop production environment and improving workshop production efficiency. Alternatively, additional equipment can be introduced, further improving the workshop's resource utilization rate.
[0101] In addition, after obtaining the target workshop layout, the layout of each piece of equipment in the workshop is set according to the target workshop layout, and the operation of each piece of equipment in the workshop is monitored in real time to build an online workshop. Then, the actual production efficiency of the workshop within the target time period is obtained and compared with the ideal production efficiency to verify the actual effect of the target workshop layout. If the effect is not ideal, it needs to be updated and optimized, thus improving the effectiveness of workshop layout planning.
[0102] It should be understood that the sequence number of each step in the above embodiments does not imply the order of execution. The execution order of each process should be determined by its function and internal logic, and should not constitute any limitation on the implementation process of the embodiments of the present invention.
[0103] Secondly, please refer to Figure 6 This invention also provides a workshop layout planning device, which corresponds one-to-one with the workshop layout planning method in the above embodiments. For example... Figure 6 As shown, the workshop layout planning device includes a data acquisition module 101, a layout module 102, a layout optimization module 103, and a space reallocation module 104. Detailed descriptions of each functional module are as follows:
[0104] The data acquisition module 101 is used to acquire workshop parameters and equipment parameters;
[0105] The layout module 102 is used to fill each piece of equipment in the workshop by graphical splicing based on workshop parameters and equipment parameters, so as to minimize the total space occupied by each piece of equipment and obtain the initial workshop layout.
[0106] The layout optimization module 103 is used to optimize the initial workshop layout according to the preset standard workshop layout to obtain the intermediate workshop layout.
[0107] The space reallocation module 104 is used to reallocate the remaining space of the intermediate workshop layout to obtain the target workshop layout.
[0108] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the layout module 102 is specifically used for:
[0109] Based on the plan view and dimensions of the workshop, construct a plan view model of the workshop;
[0110] Construct a planar graphic model of the equipment based on its planar graphic and planar dimensions;
[0111] By matching and fitting the edges and corners, the planar graphic models of each device are filled into the planar graphic model of the workshop. Based on the graphic splicing, the planar graphic models of each device are centrally set to obtain the initial workshop layout.
[0112] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the layout optimization module 103 is specifically used for:

[0139] In an optional embodiment of the present invention, the production efficiency monitoring module 107 is specifically used for:
[0140] Compare the actual production efficiency of the workshop with its ideal production efficiency. If the actual production efficiency is equal to or slightly less than the ideal production efficiency, the layout of the target workshop does not need to be updated or optimized. If the actual production efficiency is much less than the ideal production efficiency, the layout of the target workshop needs to be updated and optimized.
[0141] This invention provides a workshop layout planning device. It uses a graphic splicing algorithm to design the spatial layout of equipment within a workshop, obtaining an initial workshop layout that maximizes resource utilization within a limited space. Based on a standard workshop layout, the initial layout is optimized to obtain an intermediate layout, forming a smooth and complete production line, optimizing the workshop production environment and improving production efficiency. The remaining space in the intermediate layout is then redistributed to obtain the target workshop layout. This allows for allocating more space to some equipment, further optimizing the workshop production environment and improving production efficiency. Alternatively, additional equipment can be introduced, further enhancing resource utilization. Real-time monitoring of the operation of each piece of equipment within the workshop constructs an online workshop. The actual production efficiency of the workshop within a target time period is then obtained and compared with the ideal production efficiency to verify the actual effect of the target workshop layout. Unsatisfactory results require updates and optimizations, thus improving the effectiveness of workshop layout planning.
