Description Facility layout plays a vital role in the productivity of manufacturing systems. In the factories that have high complexly process, the flows between workstations and equipment should be declined because it increases rudiment costs and reduces the productivity. In this article, a model with 7processes is investigated and the facility layout for this model is determined based on the sequences between equipment, machines and workstation. This model is solved by relationship process method. Then, the process flow diagram is clarified. In this model, the relationship between processes and equipment is the main input that should be considered for facility layout. This model contains “m” parallel machines and “n” jobs. Minimizing the work flow time is the purpose of solving this model. Finally, the layout and jobs sequences are evaluated by objective matrix method. In this part, their indexes are determined based on the results that are calculated.
