Currently, the company operates four machines, and desires a 25 percent capacity cushion. How many machines should be purchased to meet the upcoming year's demand without resorting to any short-term capacity solutions? The number of additional machines required is (Enter your response rounded up to the next whole number)arrow_forwardTailwind, Inc., produces high-quality but expensive training shoes for runners. The Tailwind shoe, which sells for $210, contains both gas- and liquid-filled compartments to provide more stability and better protection against knee, foot, and back injuries. Manufacturing the shoes requires 10 separate tasks. There are 400 minutes available for manufacturing the shoes in the plant each day. Daily demand is 60. The information for the tasks is as follows: Performance Time Task Must Follow This Task ABCDEFGHI · Task (in minutes) А В Е Н 1 -324-325- - A B B C, D A F G E, H J 3 | Total 25 Required: a.

- Super Fun Industries manufactures four top-selling toys code-named A-148, B-356, B-457, and C-843. The following table shows how long it takes to process each toy through each required station. Note that all times are in minutes. Super Fun's manufacturing plant is open 12 hours a day, 5 days a week, and 8 hours on Saturday. b. If weekly demand for the four products are A-148=180 units, B-356=310 units, B-457=280 units, and C-843=300 units, which station is the bottleneck, and is it capable of producing all the toys demanded?

The daily demand is 100 toys. Times of the tasks are 2.73, 2.01, 2.13, 2.0, 2.61,2.71, and 2.95 minutes for A, B, C, D, E, F, and G, respectively. However, due to the nature of the product there are precedence rules that must be observed. Such that Task A does not need any predecessors; task B requires task A to be completed. To start task C and task D, each require task B to be completed. Task C must be completed prior to stating task E. Task F needs both task D and task E to be completed. Finally, task G can start only once task F is completed.Given we apply the most remaining tasks rule for balancing the assembly line, with ties broken according to longest task time first, What will the estimated idle time in minutes for FOURTH workstation?

- The trim line at PW is a small subassembly line that, along with other such lines, feeds into the final chassis line. The entire assembly line, which consists of more than 900 workstations, is to make PW's new E cars. The trim line itself involves only 13 work elements and must handle 20 cars per hour. Work-element data are as follows: Work Element A B C D E F G H I L M Time (Minutes) 1.8 0.4 1.6 1.5 0.7 0.5 0.8 1.4 1.4 1.4 0.5 1.0 0.8 Immediate Predecessor(s) None None None A A E B с D F, G H J I, K, L a.

- A medical equipment testing and calibration service is shown below. The customer usually brings the equipment to the service center. The service process requires service technicians to perform three process steps #1 to #3. Each technician is cross-trained so they can perform any of the three steps. The inspector does step #4 alone. After step #4, two parallel work activities are performed. That is, a shipping clerk packs the work (step #7), while simultaneously, a billing clerk prepares the invoice (step #5), and the customer is contacted by phone for pick-up (step #6). The average throughput is three equipment units per hour. The table below shows the work content of the process steps, activity times in minutes per unit, shared and non-shared work activities, and the type of resource required. There are three service technicians on duty, one inspector, one billing clerk, and one shipping clerk.
