The lean operations system strategy has been in operation for 3 months at Your Furniture Company. Recently, operations managers have received complaints from the company’s distribution division that customer orders for dining room tables are delayed due to a backup in the production assembly area. The assembly team consists of 30 members, with each member assembling a table from start to finish from the cut pieces provided through upstream production. Using the given Dining Table Assembler (DTA) job design, how does each step in the methods analysis procedure can be used to improve the efficiency of the assembly operation?

Solvo produces three types of trucks on one assembly line: the long-haul (L), the short-haul (S), and the vocational truck (V). Next month the company has orders for 1,100 long-haul trucks, 1650 short-haul trucks, and 550 vocational trucks. Chris Riggs, the production manager for Solvo, wants to try uniform production and mixed-model sequencing. Assuming 30 working days per month, what assembly sequence would you recommend, and how many times per day should the sequence be repeated. (Round answer to 0 decimal places) Assembly sequence?

Value-Stream Costing Objective During the week of June 12, Harrison Manufacturing produced and shipped 16,000 units of its aluminum wheels: 3,800 units of Model A and 12,200 units of Model B. The cycle time for Model A is 0.80 hours and that of Model B is 0.55 hours. The total net work hours for the aluminum wheel value stream for the week were 15,000. The following costs were incurred: Order processing Production planning Purchasing Stamping Welding Cladding Testing Packaging and shipping Invoicing Total Materials $365,000 140,000 335,000 Unit Cost $840,000 Salaries/ Wages $18,000 321,600 25,200 36,500 40,000 11,000 10,000 13,800 $476,100 Machining $37,000 40,000 $77,000 Other $18,400 12,000 $30,400 Total Cost $18,000 321,600 25,200 456,900 232,000 335,000 11,000 10,000 13,800 $1,423,500 Required: 1.

Carol Cagle has a repetitive manufacturing plant producing trailer hitches in Arlington, Texas. The plant has an average inventory turnover of only 12 times per year. He has therefore determined that he will reduce his component lot sizes. He has developed the following data for one component, the safety chain clip: Setup labor cost Annual holding cost Daily production Annual demand Desired lot size To obtain the desired lot size, the set-up time that should be achieved = $25 per hour $15 per unit 960 units/8 hour day 30,000 (250 days each x daily demand of 120 units) 120 units (one hour of production) minutes (round your response to two decimal places).
Is it feasible to increase production while requiring less maintenance?
