In a casting machining company, it takes an operator 15 seconds to load and 15 seconds to unload each machining center. There are several same centers, all working on the same type of part, and the duration of the automatic operation is 1 minute. Given that the cost per hour of the operator and the cost per hour of the machine is $10, using the man-machine diagram, determine the value of the highest production rate for the system.

Metal Casting

Metal casting is described as a manufacturing process in which a mold cavity is produced by sand, and molten metal is filled inside a mold cavity. The desirable shaped object is achieved after the solidification of molten metal. Large metal objects like machine beds, motor bodies, and others can easily be manufactured using metal casting. The place or shop where metal casting is performed is called foundry.
