Question: b) Given the demand, the cycle time for the production of the new train set = ___ seconds (round your response to one decimal place).
b) Given the demand, the cycle time for the production of the new train set = ___ seconds (round your response to one decimal place).
c) The theoretical minimum number of workstations=___ (round your response up to the next whole number).
d) Using the longest operation time rule, the assignment of tasks to workstations should be: (Hint: Number workstations sequentially in terms of precedence relationships and combine any applicable tasks.)
Task Workstation # A Station 1 B Station 2 C Station 3 D Station 3 E Station 4 F Station 5
Were you able to assign all the tasks to the theoretical minimum number of workstations? ______
e) The total idle time per cycle for the process = ______?_____ seconds (enter your response as a whole number).
f) the efficiency of the assembly line with 5 workstations=____?___%(enter your response as a percentage rounded to one decimal place.)
if one used 6 workstations instead of 5, the efficiency of the assembly line would be=_____%(enter your response as a percentage rounded to one decimal place.)
g)The efficiency of the assembly line with 5 work stations equals??(one decimal place)
h) if one used 6 work stations instead of 5, the efficiency of the assembly line would be what??(one decimal place)
Please answer all parts. Thank you
The Action Toy Company has decided to manufacture a new train set, the production of which is broken into six steps. The demand for the train is 4,500 units per 40-hour workweek: Task Predecessors A A B C D Performance Time (seconds) 24 27 14 14 10 28 A E F B, C D, E This exercise only contains parts b, c, d, e, and f. b) Given the demand, the cycle time for the production of the new train set = seconds (round your response to one decimal place)
