Abstract

The home industry of Cabalu smoked salted egg is one of the home industries in Bone Regency that operates in the egg processing sector. This home had the potential to produce smoked salted eggs, which was quite promising and was supported by the main raw material for duck eggs, which was available in three cages in Cabalu village and had a group of ducks and raw materials for salt that are easy to obtain, as well as the public's interest in home products. Currently, the layout of production facilities and working environment conditions in the home industry of Cabalu smoked salted egg are experiencing problems. This research aims to redesign the Home Industry of Cabalu smoked salted egg facility's layout, which can utilize the area, minimize material path length, reduce process constraints, and maximize production results using the Activity Relationship Chart (ARC) method and the BLOCPLAN algorithm. The proposed layout was selected based on the adjective value and R-Score, which was close to 1, with a rel-dist score with the lowest value and adapting to the conditions of the home industry. The proposed layout number 20, the alternative layout was chosen as the proposed layout with the lowest material transfer distance.
