A production process at Kenneth Day Manufacturing is shown in the figure below. The drilling operation occurs separately from, and simultaneously with, the sawing and sanding, which are independent sequential operations. A product needs to go through only one of the three assembly operations (the operations are in parallel). a) Drilling is the bottleneck. 6 units/hr 2.5 units/hr Sawing Sanding Assembly 0.8 units/hr Welding 5 units/hr Assembly 0.8 units/hr Drilling 2 units/hr Assembly b) The bottleneck time is 30 minutes per unit (round your response to two decimal places). c) The throughput time of the overall system is minutes (round your response to two decimal places). 0.8 units/hr A production process at Kenneth Day Manufacturing is shown in the figure below.
