This Master thesis provides insight into the logistics of a particular company. The work is divided into two sections. The first one brings a theoretical base for the next sections and describes essential terms including the logistic chain, material flow management and logistics technology. The second section is analytical and was elaborated in a company Bosch Diesel s.r.o. in Jihlava. It contains an introduction to a Transportation concept and my own external analysis of material flows in the Czech Republic (within the scope of Bosch), based on which I suggest new solutions for the company. The costs of the particular suggestions are analysed and compared in the last part of this thesis.

Traditionally manufacturing job shops either have a process layout or a product layout. The advantages of one type of layout tend to be a disadvantage for the other. Hybrid cellular constructs represents a novel fusion of process and product layouts. In this thesis, hybrid cellular constructs specifically Hybrid Flow Shops and Reoriented andamp; Reshaped Cells are clearly described in terms of their structure, key features, and modes of operation. An engineering procedure is illustrated by cases and particular manufacturing circumstances where each concept would be most useful are identified. This thesis then defines the lean practices that are compatible with the structure in question and identifies what practices are incompatible. It suggests how to modify lean practices to fit and at least obtain some benefits for the incompatible ones. Finally, a procedure for design of logistics management systems for assembly cells and lines is presented.

The diploma thesis focuses on internal logistics and manipulation in the manufacturing company. First part provides theoretical background. Second part offers an insight into the current state and last part contains a solution for optimization of internal logistics.

In today’s fierce competitive global markets, customers are demanding adjustable lot sizes, shorter lead times, higher quality and flexibility; in short, they want it all. In order to stay competitive in the market, companies need to attain both customer satisfaction and cost reduction in production operations. Material Handling Systems (MHS) is the place to accomplish this goal, since they have a direct impact on production. Therefore, the aim of this study was to design an in-house MHS that could be efficient for the production it serves. With this intention, a case-study has been conducted in Bosch Rexroth Japan. During the study, the information gathered through various sources; interviews, observations and measurements. Further, the gathered data is evaluated according to main pillars of the theoretical framework, which includes design principles and physical elements, information and software, human and management. By analyzing the findings from literature review and empirical study, first problems and challenges related to MHSs are identified. Thereafter, possible features that the system should posses are elicited and a design is built out of the selected features. To conclude, the results show that the success is not solely depending on system’s physical attributes; on the contrary, it is more related to rapid and accurate information sharing within the system. Another vital element is the interaction between system and the people, who are utilizing and operating the system. In general terms, the research took MHS design problems from one-dimensional equipment selection processes and enriches them by adding information sharing, human and management angles to design steps.

This diploma´s thesis is focused on design of the logistics concept of selected production section in manufacturing firm with using logistics method Just In Time. In analytical part is analysed current situation of managing material flows for selected production sections, ways of supplying production units and amount of stock which is stored in production areas. In proposal part are suggested some changes in various spheres along with new design of the logistics concept and possible economical contributions in case of applying this logistics concept.

This thesis deals with the issue of material flow of selected production area in the researched company. The master's thesis defines the weaknesses of the current state of inventory management and creates a proposal for the most effective management of material stock in the company, using lean production. The basic element of the thesis is the introduction of a pull system into a selected production area.

This thesis refers about the optimalization of internal business logistics system. This thesis want to explore and propose new solutions to the system of internal transport of material in a manufacturing company. The aim is find a suitable methodology for the problem and aplication this methodology to the particular case. The practical part describes the specific case of the production system in the Bosch Diesel s.r.o. at his plant in Jihlava. Description includes an overview of the current state of the logistical arrangements and problems that a rise from the current state. Compares the current state with the proposed state and investigates the various pros and cons. Part of the analysis is a computer simulation of the transport system, which has been support to confirming the appropriateness of the proposed solutions.

Graduation theses is dealing New logistic concept, which is in these days implemented in concern Volkswagen. Author, employee of Škoda company, describes New logistic concept at all in its five moduls and he is evaluating its principles with the modernest logistic theory. In practical part he analyses factuality of concrete Milkrun establishing in order of New logistic concept principles. Work results with confirmation of funcionality of new principles through concrete exam of Milkrun. It containes also common recomendation for successful realisation the whole concept.
