USAHow a mechanical workshop layout is designed
Each mechanical workshop design is created following different phases: the designer takes care of every aspect in detail and works with the aim of achieving the best technical-economic result, while creating a relationship of trust with the customer. This is how a DEA Worklab mechanical workshop layout is created.
A design made by professionals in the automotive sector is the basis for a mechanical workshop that works well. It is necessary to carefully evaluate not only the available space, but also the way they are used.
Let's take a closer look at the design process of a DEA Worklab mechanical workshop layout.
On-site visit and definition of customer needs
In addition to obstacles, critical issues and special requests, in order to accurately design a workshop, it is necessary to understand if there is a need for customisation, and if so, which. Special colours? Extra-standard dimensions? Custom finishes?
Personalisation is essential: if the customer requests it, our team is ready to study the best possible customised solution.
Study of the dimensions and subdivision of the rooms
Once the customer's requests and needs have been defined, the floor plan of the workshop must be thoroughly studied.
We then have to understand which areas will be furnished to be able to choose the modular furnishings that best suit the purpose. In general, we find the following areas:
- car hoist area;
- workbench area;
- assembly/disassembly area;
- reception area;
- offices;
- warehouse;
- electrical vehicle area;
- inspections.
Definition of the modules that will make up the layout
Now we have a clear idea of space distribution, we move on to the choice of modules from the catalogue or, if necessary, to the creation of custom furnishings for the workshop.
In this phase we leave room for creativity, without losing sight of the main objective: to maximise space and improve mechanics’ productivity.
This means we’ll be looking at things like modular workbenches complete with drawer units, cabinets and tool trolleys, as well as modules such as part washing sinks, special accessories and custom panelling.
3D design proposal to the customer
We build the 3D design on the imported layout.
Producing a three-dimensional file is advantageous for several reasons:
- the workshop design is immediately executive;
- it provides a faithful image of "how it will be", a preview of the finished work;
- the customer can immediately see where, and how, the available budget will be employed.
Once everything has been defined, we move on to installation by our technicians and turnkey delivery.
Trust DEA for your mechanical workshop layout. You’ll see the benefits of a single contact person who will take care of the project from start to finish right away.
