Factory floor
Yes, you are right. "Nivel de planta" means the floor on which the processing equipment is.
I am now translating a text from English into Spanish where they called it "Factory floor".
Acerca de las ventajas, no se me ocurre ahorita nada.

mezzanine
It sounds like the floor describing as "nivel de planta", where the processing equipment is found, could be considered a mezzanine.
