Problem 1. Product A and B will be produced in a manufacturing company with the annual production rate of 80,000 units for Product A and 65,000 for Product B. Production sequence for both products is the same: Drilling Turning Milling. Machine availability for all departments is 90%, with the remaining time being required for maintenance and repair work. One daily setup of 0.20 hours will be required for each machine regardless of the type of operation. Given that this plant will work 250 workdays per year with a daily shift of 8 hours, it is desired to determine the number of machines required (if decimal is s 0.09 round down otherwise round up). (40pt) Scrap rate is 2%. Drilling Department Cycle time for Product A = 0.05hr Cycle time for Product B = 0.07hr Turning department Cycle time for Product A = 0.2hr Cycle time for Product B = 0.15hr Milling Department Cycle time for Product A-0.12hr Cycle time for Product B -0.23hr
