- If a production process has a bottleneck cycle time of 48 minutes/item, what is the maximum daily capacity of the system, assuming the company operates two, 8-hour shifts? Enter an integer value.The three-station work cell at Pullman Mfg., Inc. is illustrated in the figure below. It has two machines at station 1 in parallel (i.e., the product needs to go through only one of the two machines before proceeding to station 2). a) The throughput time isminutes (enter your response as a whole number). b) The bottleneck time of this work cell isminutes per unit (enter your response as a whole number) c) is the bottleneck station. If the firm operates 11 hours per day, 6 days per week, the weekly capacity of this work cell isunits (enter your response as a whole number).A production line at V. J. Sugumaran’s machineshop has three stations. The first station can process a unit in10 minutes. The second station has two identical machines,each of which can process a unit in 12 minutes. (Each unitonly needs to be processed on one of the two machines.) Thethird station can process a unit in 8 minutes. Which station isthe bottleneck station?
- If you can hire an additional worker in order to improve the process capacity you should assign the worker to ?Suppose for a particular process that the bottleneck cycle time is 54 seconds, and raw processing time is 345 seconds. If there are 4 customers in this system already, and then you walk up and join the line at Station 1, what is your expected lead-time to move through the entire process? Whole number value, no decimal places.For a given process, the raw processing time is 102 sec, the bottleneck cycle time is 20 sec/item, and the WIP is 6 items. The expected lead-time (LT) is ____ seconds. Enter a whole number answer.
- Consider a process consisting of five resources that are operated 8 hours per day. Theprocess works on three different products, A, B, and C: Demand for the three different products is as follows: product A, 40 units per day;product B, 50 units per day; and product C, 60 units per day.a. What is the bottleneck?b. What is the flow rate for each flow unit, assuming that demand must be served in the mixdescribed above (i.e., for every four units of A, there are five units of B and six units of C)?Which operation is the bottleneck of this process? a. Stocking b. Pricing c. Spotting d. Shipping e. Impossible to determineAn order for 100 of a product is processed on operation A and operation B. The setuptime on A is 50 minutes, and the run time per piece is 9 minutes. The setup time onB is 30 minutes, and the run time is 6 minutes per piece. It takes 20 minutes to movea lot between A and B. Since this is a rush order, it is given top priority (president’sedict) and is run as soon as it arrives at either workstation.It is decided to overlap the two operations and to split the lot of 100 into two lotsof 60 and 40. When the first lot is finished on operation A, it is moved to operation Bwhere it is set up and run. Meanwhile, operation A completes the balance of the 100units (40) and sends the units over to operation B. These 40 units should arrive asoperation B is completing the first batch of 60; thus, operation B can continue withoutinterruption until all 100 are completed.a. Calculate the total manufacturing lead time for operation A and for B withoutoverlapping.b. Calculate the manufacturing lead time…
