firis is a subjective question, hence you have to write your answer in the Text. Field given below. A semi-automated assembly machine, assembles and welds automotive components for a single shift of 8 hours, 5 days a week; planned throughput =275 units/hour, actual output =2200 units.week. Calculate Overall Equipment Efficiency. [6] The following losses are encountered during assembly: - Incorrect assembly causes the machine to stop and needs re-set on average 6 times/hr. where 4 unit and 8 minutes are lost. - Worn out electrodes are to be replaced once per week, it takes 75 minutes when 45 units are scrapped - Burst out cooling hose causes a machine breakdown once in a month and replacement takes 6.25 hours - Misaligned fixture causes a loss of 220 units/ week - For different size parts, fixtures to be removed and replaced and electrode position to be adjusted 3 times/week which takes 3 hours where 40 units are scrapped each time - Actuating cylinder sometimes sticks for 35 minutes/adjustment causing production delay which takes double cycle time - Application of rust protective spray by operator stopping the machine at the start and end of the day takes 8 minutes each time - Limit switches corrode once in every 7 weeks stopping the machine and replacement takes 330 minutes
