Question: Consider an assembly line with three machines: machine 1 , machine 2 and machine 3 . Machines 1 and 2 are parallel and machine 3
Consider an assembly line with three machines: machine machine and machine Machines and are parallel and machine is series with machines and The raw material enters to the production line with an exponential distribution, an average of minutes. The raw materials will be then sent to the queue and wait in the queue to be processed on either machine or
The raw material waiting in queue will be sent to either machine or as these machines have same functionality. Once raw materials are processed by either machine or then they will be sent to the waiting line queue Then the items from queue will be sent to machine for final process. The items finally will be collected by the end of line. There is a dispatcher that dispatch operators. The dispatcher responsibility is to dispatch operators to pick up raw materials boxes from first queue and drop boxes on machines and The setup and processing time of machines are given below:
