The three-station work cell illustrated in the figure below has a product that must go through one of the two machines at station 1 (they are parallel) before proceeding to station 2. Capacity: 20 units/hr Station 1 Machine A Station 2 Station 3 Station 1 Machine B Capacity: 10 units/hr Capacity: 3 units/hr Capacity: 20 units/hr a) The bottleneck time of the system is minutes per unit (enter your response as a whole number). A production process at Kenneth Day Manufacturing is shown in the figure below. The drilling operation occurs separately from, and simultaneously with, the sawing and sanding, which are independent sequential operations. A product needs to go through only one of the three assembly operations (the operations are in parallel). 1.8 units/hr 5 units/hr Assembly 0.7 units/hr Sawing Sanding Welding 2.2 units/hr Assembly 0.7 units/hr Drilling 6 units/hr Assembly 0.7 units/hr a) is the bottleneck.
