please do part B
Partit: Case Study in Process analysis & cont. Improvement The ACORN Corp. operates Job Shop type manufacturing system as shown below. One of their recent order involves processing a batch of 500 units of a product (call PRDX). The batch of 500 units of PRDX arrive at point A in a special basket. It is first processed in Machine 1, then the batch is transferred (in a basket) to machine 2 for further processing. Assume that: Units are processed one by one. Each machine uses one operator The output from machine 2 is tested (at point D) by an operator before the product enters the output basket, Assume X rejected at point D-0 Assume travel time from point D to output basket is zero . . . Activities process Procesor Handling storage Test (A) B Machine 1 Machine 2 Po Output Times B to C 30 min 3 M 12 Legend: a)- -: Flow of product/Basket b)- Machine : Machine operation i C)- : Basket (holds products) on Operator Part A: Determine: 1). Cycle Time 2). Lead Time for the batchforder 3). Production rate and daily production capacity of the system 4). Process Cycle Efficiency 5). % of cycle time is spent on no-value added but required activities. Part B: Answer questions #1, 2, 3, 4, and 5 above, assuming that the production system is connected Le, B is connected to C and no WIP between the two Machines). It takes 1.5 minutes for the product to travel from B to C Part C: Suppose after 8 hours of operation (allow 40 minutes for breaks), the system produced only 95 Units of good output. if percent rejected (X) at point D was 10% answer the following questions: 1) Determine the efficiency of the system 2) Number of units rejected
