A total of 15-day data was collected for a work sampling study at a mechanized production line which involves 10 workers. Each day, the line was operating for 12 hours. The summary of the observations is shown in Table 1. Currently the average monthly salary is RM 1800 per worker. The normal operation period is 22 days per month. Analyse the given information and propose appropriate standard time for the product by applying the industrial engineering approach. Then use the standard time to compute the labour cost (in RM per unit) for the overall production process.

A flow-line mass production operation consists of six manual workstations. Work units are moved synchronously and automatically between stations, with a transfer time of 10 secs. The manual processing operations performed at the six stations take 45 sec, 50 sec, 40 sec, 42 sec, 30 sec, and 55 sec, respectively. Determine (a) cycle time for the line, (b) time to process one work until through the six workstations, (c) average production rate, and (d) time to produce 20,000 units.
The production manager of a manufacturing firm has tracked the average repair and maintenance cost of a machine for 10 years. Cost averages were steady at Rs. 20,000 for the first five years, but have increased consistently by Rs. 5,000 for each of the last 5 years. Draw the cash flow diagram and calculate the equivalent present worth and annual worth of the costs, if interest rate is 6% per annum.
Find a product with good anthropometric considerations in design. Find a similar product with poor anthropometric considerations in design. Provide pictures and describe the differences between the two products, in terms of ergonomics component. Suggest design improvement for the product with poor anthropometric consideration
Foxconn operates a network of factories across the Chinese mainland employing 1.2 million people, that makes products for tech companies that include Apple, Hewlett Packard, and Dell. The electronics manufacturing giant has been on a steady course for a while to replace man power with robotic systems. “Foxconn (has) vowed to install up to 1 million robots in its factories over the next three years, which analysts suggested was in part to address long-time scandals such as high suicide rates among employees and exploitation of workers.” Foreign manufacturers in China are also viewing upgrades as vital to their operations in the country. In fact, numerous multinational companies have recognized the long-term benefits of replacing human labor with robots. 1- Many companies outsourced their manufacturing activities to Foxconn due to its low labor costs. Does Foxconn’s shift to automation make it likely that some of those companies will reconsider outsourcing in favor of shifting to…
Aztec Furnishings makes hand-craft ed furniture for sale inits retail stores. Th e furniture maker has recently installed a newassembly process, including a new sander and polisher. With thisnew system, production has increased to 90 pieces of furniture perday from the previous 60 pieces of furniture per day. Th e numberof defective items produced has dropped from 10 pieces per dayto 1 per day. Th e production facility operates strictly eight hoursper day. Evaluate the change in productivity for Aztec using thenew assembly process
Three machines are used in a group-technology cell to process a family of five parts. Thetable below lists production quantities (Qj), production times (Tpij), and machine fractionsfor each family member (fij). Part E requires a changeover time of 5 min on each machine soit is produced in batches of 5 parts. Nonoperation times (Tno) are the same for all parts andmachines: 25 min per machine. Determine (a) average hourly production rate for the cell,(b) utilization of each machine and average utilization of the cell, (c) manufacturing leadtime, and (d) work-in-process. A spreadsheet calculator is recommended for this problem
APPLICATIONS F MAXIMA & MINIMA1 . The profit derived from producing a certain product isp = 30x -X2-200 where X = number of product unitsproduced per month . What level of production will yielda zero marginal profit ?
11)Q1. How do you evaluate manufacturing process?
There are four distinct categories that can be used to classify production systems. A concise explanation and example are provided for each of these categories in turn.
A company that produces x thousand A type and y thousand B type annually will have annual expenses C(x,y) = 5x2 – 4xy + 3y2 – 18x + 20 million TL and annual income R(x,y) = 8x + 5y million TL. How many thousand type A and how many thousand type B products should this firm produce annually to maximize its annual profit? What would be the maximum profit?
A process currently services an average of 59 customers per day. Observations in recent weeks show that its utilization is about 90 percent, allowing for just a 10 percent capacity cushion. If demand is expected to be 70 percent of the current level in five years and management wants to have a capacity cushion of just 4 percent, what capacity requirement should be planned? The needed capacity requirement is nothing customers per day. (Enter your response rounded up to the next whole number.)
Estimate the effort, time, production and the number of personnel necessary for the development of a Communications system that has a size of 30,000 LDC. In this project there are factors that influence the development and ensure the proper functioning of the system. These are: Complexity of development, staff qualification and advanced knowledge of the language in which it will be developed. Each factor in the order described has a weighted value of 1.15, 0.7 and 0.91 respectively. It is important to mention that the monthly payment per person working in the development is $2,200.
