Compute Lead Time Jackson Fabricators Inc, machines metal parts for the automotive industry. Under the traditional manufacturing approach, the parts are machined through two processes: miling and finishing. Parts are produced in batch sizes of 70 parts. A part requires 2 minutes in milling and 6 minutes in finishing. The move time between the two operations for a complete batch is 7 minutes Under the lean philosophy, the part is produced in a cell that includes both the milling and finishing operations. The operating time is unchanged; however, the batch size is reduced to 4 parts and the move time is eliminated. Determine the value-added, non-value-added, and total lead times, and the value-added ratio under the traditional and lean manufacturing methods. If required, round percentages to one decimal place. Traditional Philosophy Lean Manufacturing Philosophy Value-added time 8 8 min min 559 min 48 X min Non-value-added time Total lead time 573 X min 62 X min 9 Value-added ratio (as a percent) Feedback Orechy Work
