At a garment​ manufacturer, all cutting machines are grouped together in one​ area, whereas sewing machines are grouped together in another​ area, and pressing machines are arranged in still another area. what type of layout does this​ suggest?

This question suggests that the garment manufacturer uses grouped work stations. Instead of using a more streamlined process in which the material would move smoothly from cutting to sewing to pressing, the cutting machines are in a group in one place. Likewise, the sewing machines are in a separate area, as are the pressing machines.
