Its plant layouts were such that a transmission, say, could travel as much as 10 miles as it moved to different assembly operations.

Modifications will depend on the characteristics of the fuels, the original combustion technology, the plant layout and the type and location of auxiliary systems.

Product Layout is one of the three basic types of plant layouts; the other tine segments.

He has established a distinctive style of plant layout.

But such locations often limited their space, making plant layouts difficult and adding to transportation costs.
