One of the most
important decisions affecting the establishment process for a company is

establishment area, the qualifications of the machines, the number of the
auxiliary facilities, the connections between the worker cells, the flexibility
and the automation structure, the supply need, stock, energy and personnel need
to be clarified in the process of establishment decision. However, such
policies cannot be careful enough capacity in the process of organization in
fast-growing countries such as Turkey after the new machines are also added as
needed to the production line and the line re-balance is composed in a
different way. From this point of view, furniture enterprises have a
characteristic feature. Flexibility and automation in the furniture factories

practice.. This study examined the capacity calculation in Turkey approaches
and methods applied in the furniture industry, the process on the basis of
existing practices, resources and capacity from the level of injury were
analyzed. For this purpose, 55 furniture enterprises operating in Istanbul and
the existing capacity reports are discussed. The machinery and installation
structures, closed areas, number and quality of employees, product structures,
installed power and production and consumption capacities of the companies were
investigated and it was investigated whether there is a significant relation
between these parameters. As a result of the research, it can be seen that
