application, we proposed the system coupling level index (SCLI) and simulation to evaluate the process layout design concepts … (ELL) and independent zone layout (IZL) - were generated. Then, the SCLI excluded CL and simulation selected IZL as the … best concept. The simulation was also applied to optimize the performance of IZL in terms of the number of pallets. Based …
