2. (10 points) Short Answer 2 You are designing a product layout for the production of bug-out bags. A bug-out bag is an emergency supply kit in the event that you have to leave your location with short notice (like a hoard of zombies taking over). Let's assume that it has been over 5 years since the initial zombie outbreak and you have found hundreds of survivors. Zombies are still a problem but there is also trade developing between bands of survivors. You are going to trade by making bug-out bags. As well, your band of survivors might want to have multiple bags per person to stash at different safe houses. You are going to use a production line eight hours a day in order to meet the projected demand of 480 units per day. The tasks necessary to produce this product: TASK PREDECESSOR TIME(seconds) u 30 V u 30 W 11 6 x W 12 y x 54 Z v.y 30 1. Draw the precedence network (1) 2. If you need the output rate equal to demand, what is the desired cycle time (in seconds)? (2) 3. If you need the output rate equal to demand, what is the minimum number of workstations needed? (2) 4. Determine the allocation of tasks to workstations. Show the allocation. (2) 5. Calculate the idle time. (1) 6. Calculate the efficiency of the product layout. (2)
