Floor$-$On$.$ Ltd$.,$ operates a line that produces self$-$adhesive tiles. This line consists of single$-$machine stations and is almost balanced $($i$.$e$.$ station rates are nearly equal$).$A manufacturing engineer has estimated the bottleneck rate of the line to be $2,000$ cases per $16-$hour day and the raw process time to be $30$ minutes. The line has averaged $1,700$ cases per day, and cycle time has averaged $3\mathrm{.}5$ hours.

What would happen to the throughput of the line if we replaced a single$-$machine station with four machines whose capacity equaled that of the single machine and held the WIP constant at its current level?
