Abstract
This paper is based upon two trial runs conducted for a poly films firm in India. Flexi-liner was a new concept that had been introduced recently in India for transportation of free flowing dry bulk cargo for domestic transportation. Three different products were taken into consideration and all were manufactured in bulk and have large volumes to cater to and facing similar problems of high cost of packaging, transportation and plant congestion. The crux of the issue was to increase material handling at both the plants, reduce time and storage place and in turn increase production without affecting existing systems and processes by using Flexi-liner and a combination of manual and pneumatic discharge system and aligning the same with the new production line.
