Question #1
A production line is to be designed for a job with four tasks. The cycle times are 5.4 minutes, 2.8 minutes, 3.9 minutes, and 4.7 minutes. The raw process time is ______ and the bottleneck cycle time is ______ minutes.
Question #2
Do some research on what takt time is and then determine takt time from the information below. In your assignment submission please make sure you define takt time.
The takt time a production line is expected to meet is 3000 parts over the next five day week in which each day has 12hrs of available time. There are four operations in the line and their cycle times are 1.5 minutes, 0.4 minutes, 1.03 minutes, and 2.9 minutes per job. The takt time is ______ minutes, and the bottleneck time is _________ minutes.
- Will the line make the takt time? (Please show your work)
Question #3
Consider the following three-station production line with a single product that must visit stations 1, 2, and 3 in sequence.
- Station 1 has 3 identical machines with an average processing times of 5 minutes per job
- Station 2 has 10 identical machines with an average processing time of 20 minutes per job.
- Station 3 has 4 machines with average processing times of 3 minutes per job.
a. How long does it take for a product to go through the entire production line?
b. What is the cycle time of each station?
c. What is the bottleneck rate for the production line and what station is it?
d. Compute w0 for production line?
e. What is the takt time of the line given that 5600 parts have to be made over the course of 100 hrs?
f. Can the three station production line make this takt time? If not how many machines would I need at station 1, 2, and 3?
