En studie av flo?den och processer pa? Alfa Laval i Eskilstuna
AbstractThis study deals with the tours carried out in the manufacturing sector, at Alfa Laval in Eskilstuna. A large number of visitors, from a variety of backgrounds, go there to see how the manufacturing of separators works. With visitors I refer to the company?s customers, suppliers, students, in- house trainee courses, managers and senior citizens groups.The study examines how these tours can be standardized using spatial design. The result shows the importance of working systematically with visualizing the work as well as the environment for optimizing the visitor's understanding. The study also reveals the differences that exist in the tours made, which is caused by the number of guides and the different target groups. The effect of this is many different versions of what is presented and what routes that are taken. The company may therefore appear inconsistent, or fail to give a consistent impression.The amount of visual impressions in the factory complicates the clarity of a sign system and makes the guiding unclear. By establishing a number of stations to be visited in order, the flow through the plant is likely to become clearer. Furthermore, the understanding of the production is easier, when the route follows the same process that the product undergoes.In this way the company maximizes the effect of their tours for all parties in a coherent, consistent and logical way.
