This thesis presents the analysis and redesign of the outbound logistics system in a manufacturing company producing compressors and dryers. The study aims to improve efficiency, safety, and space utilization within material flows from the end-of-line area to shipping. The current configuration, based on forklift operations in shared corridors, causes interference between vehicles and operators. A new logistics layout was designed to separate flows, enhance safety, and optimize production space. Simulation-based validation confirmed the effectiveness of the proposed solution.
