With the development of the economy and the globalization of competition, manufacturing enterprises in our country are facing more and more fierce competition. Workshop layout has a significant influence on material flow, information flow, production capacity, production cost and safety of production system. It can save the cost of material handling, shorten production cycle, accelerate production process and circulation of working capital.
As further accelerate the pace of global economic integration，Increasing competition worldwide, multi-species, multi-processes and the small volumes that have become the main production characteristics of modern manufacturing，Therefore requires that manufacturing processes can make reasonable arrangements，Efficient use of resources, reduce construction period, lower costs. These are required to complete internal model of the production logistics reasonable choice, effective management of the workshop, so that manufacturers can smooth flow of materials.
This first mode of production logistics industry to analyze the situation, clearly manufacturing problems in logistics management.. Second, the process to manipulate the production process and material flow characteristics of the study, introduced some basic concepts of production logistics, and analyzes the characteristics of different types of Manufacturing Enterprise. Then, for many varieties of small batch, line, project workshops and other discrete mode of production, production logistics system to study the structure and characteristics .Finally, Herman Miller (Ningbo) Furniture Co.Ltd, the specific circumstances of practice. Analysis of their production logistics model to study the advantages and disadvantages of the logistics model, and then with the iron and steel production and logistics were compared, and their respective models to improve production logistics, to provide theoretical and practical for improvement of production efficiency .
