The three-station work cell at Pullman Mfg., Inc. is illustrated in the figure below. It has two machines at station 1 in parallel (i.e., the product needs to go through only one of the two machines before proceeding to station 2).
30 min/unit
Station 1
Machine A
Station 2
Station 3
Station 1
3 min/unit
2 min/unit
Machine B
30 min/unit
a) The throughput time is
minutes (enter your response as a whole number).
b) The bottleneck time of this work cell is minutes per unit (enter your response as a whole number).
c)
is the bottleneck station
d) If the firm operates 8 hours per day, 6 days per week, the weekly capacity of this work cell is units (enter your response as a whole number).
Decision patterns in the manufacturing process are described.
B: Iraq Glass Industries Company produces two types of products, A and B,
each one goes through two production stages. Product A needs 1 working hour
in the first phase, and 4 working hours in the second phase, while Product B
needs 2 working hours in the first phase, and 3 hours of work in the second
stage. If you know that the profit per unit of product A is $60, and the profit
per unit of product B is $50. The available weekly working hours in the first
stage are 40 hours, and in the second stage are 120 hours.
Required: Building a mathematical model that maximizes the company's
profits

- An order for 100 of a product is processed on work centers A and B. The setup time on A is 30 minutes, and run time is 10 minutes per piece. The setup time on B is 50 minutes, and the run time is 5 minutes per piece. Wait time between the two operations is 4 hours. The move time between A and B is 10 minutes. Wait time after operation B is 4 hours, and the move time into stores is 15 minutes. There is no queue at either workstation. If it is decided to overlap operations A and B by splitting the lot of 100 into two lots of 70 and 30. Wait time between A and B and between B and stores is eliminated. Setup on operation B can start before the first batch arrives. Calculate the manufacturing lead time for the whole order. Calculate the manufacturing lead time for the first patch.arrow_forwarda) Consider an AS/RS machine in an aisle that is 280 ft long and 70 ft high.

Fork lift trucks are used to transport the materials. They move at an average speed = 275 ft>min (loaded) and 350 ft/min (empty). Load handling time (loading plus unloading) per delivery is 1.5 min and anticipated traffic factor = 0.9. Availability = 95% and worker efficiency = 110%. Determine the number of trucks required under each of the following assumptions: (a) the trucks never travel empty; and (b) the trucks travel empty a distance equal to their loaded distance.arrow_forwardSUBJECT ; INDUSTRIAL CONTROL PLEASE PROVIDE CLEAR EXPLAINATION , THANK YOU IN ADVANCEarrow_forward

A typical part is processed sequentially through 10 machines in batch sizes of 1. The shop contains a total of eight conventional machine tools and operates 40 hr/wk of pro duction time. Average time values on each part per machine are: machining time = 0.5 hr, work handling time = 0.3 hr, tool change time = 0.2 hr, setup time = 3 hr, and non operation time = 12 hr. A new programmable machine is being considered that can per form all 10 operations in a single setup. The programming of the machine for this part will require 20 hr; however, the programming can be done off-line, without tying up the machine. Setup time will be just 2 hr because simpler fixtures will be used. Total machining time will be reduced to 80% of its previous value due to advanced tool control algorithms; work han dling time will be the same as for one machine; and total tool change time will be reduced by…arrow_forwardA very special manufacturing operation is being designed as an assembly line. Table 1 shows the tasks that need to be performed, their task time, and preceding tasks. The goal is to produce 5760 products per month. The company has an operation pattern of 24 days per month with 8 hours per day. Draw a precedence diagram. Determine the cycle time. Using the largest work element-time rule, assign tasks to the workstations in order to have appropriate line balancing. Identify the idle time for workstation 1, 2 and 6. Identify the number of workstations for the balanced line. Calculate the balanced line effieciency to 2 decimal places (Example 0.78).arrow_forward
