The physical arrangement of a production facility has the purpose of efficiently linking transforming resources so that industrial activities work in a way that achieves optimum performance over time. In this sense, poorly designed layout can lead to efficiency problems productive. Given the assumption, this study aims to make a proposal for a new layout for the manufacturing sectors of a company in the electric branch, for that, it was necessary to study the flow of the company's production process, as well as its current layout and flow of materials within this space. With the results achieved, it was possible and the proposal of the new layout realized, it was noticed that the new proposal can contribute to the goals of reduction of movement between materials and people, elimination of crossing of flows, are achieved, ensuring better productivity as well as improvements in organization and security.
