A copy machine is available 24 hours a day. On a typical day, the machine produces 100 jobs. Each job takes about 3 minutes on the machine, 2 minutes of which is processing time and 1 minute is setup time (logging in, defining the job). About 20 Percent of the jobs need to be reworked, in which case the setup time and the processing time have to be repeated. The remainder of the time, the equipment is idle.
What is the OEE of the equipment?
answer:______percent
The information turnaround time is driven primarily by:a. the number of workers.b. the IT system.c. the inventory in the process.d. the amount of waste in the process.
A stepper is a piece of equipment in semiconductor manufacturing. Each wafer's initial pass through the stepper requires 15 minutes.
For 40 percent of wafers, they make only a single pass through the stepper. But 60 percent of wafers need to make a second pass
through the stepper. The processing time on the second pass is 40 minutes.
Instruction: Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
How many wafers does the stepper complete per hour (wafers/hr)?
per hour

- A machine makes two components; call them types A and B. It takes 250 seconds to switch production between the component types. During that time, no production occurs. When in production, each unit of A or B requires 0.5 second to be completed. The two components, A and B, are combined in an assembly process to make a final product; call it C. The assembly step can combine the two components into 1 unit every 2 seconds, or 30 units per minute. Assume there is ample demand. If the production schedule could be adjusted with the goal of minimizing inventory in the process, how many units of A should be produced before switching to component B? In other words, calculate the optimal batch size for component A. Assume the same number of units of B would be produced as well. answer:_______unitsarrow_forwardA machine makes two components; call them types A and B.

- Examples of companies that have used SMED One example of a company that succeeded with this system was Toyota, achieving a significant time reduction. Toyota used to take more than four hours to change models on an 800-ton stamping press, when its equivalent at Volkswagen required only two hours. Mention another company that has been successful with this system (SMED).arrow_forwardA machine makes two components; call them types A and B.

The two components, A and B, are combined in an assembly process to make a final product; call it C. The assembly step can combine the two components into 1 unit every 4 seconds, or 15 units per minute. Suppose the machine rotates between one batch of 2,520 units of A and 2,520 units of B.

- If the takt time is shorter than the cycle time, the process needs to run faster. True orfalse?a. Trueb. Falsearrow_forwardA cell-phone repair shop consists of three processes. Step 1 requires 4 minutes per unit, step 2 requires 6 minutes per unit and step 3 requires 2 minutes per unit. 40% of units that complete the third step require rework, which means those units must start the process over at step 2 (processing times are the same for units being reworked) and rework is always successful. Demand at the shop is 0.8 units per minute. Instruction: Round your answer to three decimal places. What is the capacity of the shop (in units per units per minute)? units per minutearrow_forwardA machine produces two parts. The switchover time between parts is 10 minutes.The process is demand-constrained and demand is received at the rate of 20 per hour.
