Thats a unique idea.You should consider the following idea to enhance your idea so that it would impact uniquely: Recent trends in industry suggest that existing layout configurations do not meet the needs of multiproduct enterprises and that there is a need for a new generation of factory layouts that are flexible, modular, and easy to reconfigure. Although most of the academic literature on layout design is based on a deterministic paradigm that assumes production requirements are known far in advance or change very little over time, a growing body of research focuses on designing layouts for dynamic and uncertain environments. An example is the research being carried out by the newly formed Consortium on Next Generation Factory Layouts (NGFL). The consortium, which involves multiple universities and several companies, is developing alternative layouts, new performance metrics, and new methods for designing flexible and reconfigurable factories.
