Chapter 11, Problem 49P
(Appendix 11A) Cycle Time and Velocity, Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency
A company like Kicker performs warranty repair work on speakers in a manufacturing cell. The typical warranty repair involves taking the defective speaker apart, testing the components, and replacing the defective components. The maximum capacity of the cell is 1,000 repairs per month. There are 500 production hours available per month.
Required:
- 1. Compute the theoretical velocity (per hour) and the theoretical cycle time (minutes per unit repaired).
- 2. Speaker repair uses 4 minutes of move time, 10 minutes of wait time, and 6 minutes of inspection time. Calculate the MCE.
- 3. Using the information from Requirement 2, calculate the actual cycle time and the actual velocity for speaker repair.

the time the snowmobile reaches the customer averages 50 days. This 50 days is spent as follows:
Wait time: 10 days
Move time: 5 days
Process time: 15 days
Queue time: 15 days
Inspection time: 5 days
What is Nash's manufacturing cycle efficiency (MCE) for its snowmobiles?
A. Find the reorder point (Complete steps of computation please)
B. What would be the ordering policy for this item?
Waiting times, manufacturing cycle times. The Sandstone Corporation uses an injection molding machine to make a plastic product, Z35, after receiving rm orders from its customers. Sandstone estimates that it will receive 60 orders for Z35 during the coming year. Each order of Z35 will take 100 hours of machine time. The annual machine capacity is 8,000 hours.

- A manual assembly line is being designed for a product with annual demand = 100,000 units. The line will operate 50 wks/year, 5 shifts/wk, and 7.5 hr/shift. Work units will be attached to a continuously moving conveyor. Work content time = 42.0 min. Assume line efficiency E = 0.97, balancing efficiency Eb = 0.92, and repositioning time Tr = 6 sec. Determine: (a) hourly production rate to meet demand, (b) number of workers required.arrow_forwardThe Sandstone Corporation uses an injection molding machine to make a plastic product, Z35, after receiving firm orders from its customers. Sandstone estimates that it will receive 60 orders for Z35 during the coming year. Each order of Z35 will take 100 hours of machine time. The annual machine capacity is 8,000 hours. Q. Calculate (a) the average amount of time that an order for Z35 will wait in line before it is processed and (b) the average manufacturing cycle time per order for Z35.arrow_forwardExplain the computation needed. We have been producing product A for several years and look forward to several more years of sales at 500,000 units per year or 2,000 units per day. The present method requires a standard time of 2.0 mins per unit or 30 pcs per hour. At this rate, it takes 33.33 hrs to make 1,000 units. All production will run on the day shift. Present Method and Costs- with a labor rate of $10.00/hr, the labor cost will be $333.30 to produce 1,000 units. The cost of 500,000 units per year would be $166,650.00 in direct labor. New Method and Cost- we have a reduction idea. If we buy this new machine attachment for $1000, the new time standard would be lowered to 1.5 minutes per unit. Will this investment be good for us?arrow_forward
