Layout planning with optimisation
Plan, check and improve factory, warehouse and office layouts with a solver – straight from your Visio drawing.
Request a demoFloorwise reads your existing drawing, checks aisle widths, escape routes and clearances against workplace regulations and proposes layouts that resolve conflicts and shorten transport routes – with reasons instead of a black box.
Visio in, Visio out
Lossless .vsdx import and export, plus SVG, a coordinate list for installation crews and JSON.
Rules checked live
Aisle widths (ASR A1.8), escape-route lengths (ASR A2.3), clearances and DIN 277 area balance – while you drag.
Optimisation by solver
A mathematical optimiser moves only what it must; fixed items, zones and aisles stay put.
Variants with trade-offs
Proposals as a Pareto front: safety, material flow and number of moves compared, with a throughput estimate.
Shape recognition
Unknown Visio shapes are recognised from your earlier assignments and offered as proposals.
Assistant
Edits in plain language ("move the press 2 m off the aisle") – previewed, applied only after your click.
Where the AI works
- 1
Understand
A classifier learns from your assignments which Visio shape is a machine, a rack or an aisle.
- 2
Optimise
The solver searches layouts under hard rules and weighted goals and explains why a problem remains.
- 3
Learn
From the variants planners choose, Floorwise proposes matching weights – visible and editable.
- 4
Deliver
The result goes back to Visio, to the installation crew as a coordinate list, or into a report.
