Editorial Reviews

Review

In his book, Plant Layout and Flow Improvement, Mr. Cedarleaf uses clear language to define the problems facing businesses in the area of material handling and flow, and then offers a logical method for solving them. His use of a "real world" example to cover topics ranging from streamlining material flow to planning for a move into a new plant makes it easy to understand the analysis and design techniques presented. I would recommend this book to any manager who is responsible for reducing the cost of handling material in their business. -- Bruce I. Nelson, P.E., President, Colmac Coil Manufacturing, Inc.

5.0 out of 5 stars Book History by the Author, October 31, 2004
This review is from: Plant Layout & Flow Improvement (Paperback)
Plant Layout and Flow Improvement, with its accompanying disks, has been on the market for about 10 years now, and is widely accepted as a very practical book about how to design a quality layout for a manufacturing plant. It is sold world wide, and graduate students have called me regarding the use of many of the new concepts in this book for their master's theses. Many colleges and universities have used it as a supplement to their standard text book. I have recieved nothing but positive feedback from the readers.
