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. Suppose the machine rotates between one batch of 1,000 units of A and 1,000 units of B. What is the average inventory of B components? answer:______units

Forming and Shaping

Metal forming is a category of metalworking process through which the material can be given the desired shape and size by subjecting it to plastic deformation, where the component undergoes bulk deformation process upon application of loads. Unlike the shearing and machining process, the material does not undergo up to a failure point as indicated in the stress-strain curve. Hence, the stresses induced during the forming process are greater than yield strength but less than the failure strength of the material. The process does not lead to the loss of material, so it can be said to be an economical process. During forming, the material is subjected to tensile forces, compressive forces, bending, and shearing loading conditions. The material should possess the property of ductility to undergo the forming process.
