The manager at FunQ, Inc collected the value stream mapping data from one of the company's manufacturing cells. This cell produces a particular steel part that is widely used in automotive industries. The data is shown in the below table. WIP(Work In Progress) is the inventory of the semi-processed items. Setup time =0min Operation 1 Cutting Up time =85% Operator =1 WIP =1200 units Cycle time =60sec Setup time =40min for every standard batch Operation 2 Up time =100% Operator =1 WIP =1200 units Cycle time =100sec Setup time =0min Operation 3 Moulding Up time =85% Operator =1 WIP=500 units Based on the given data answer the following questions. Based on the given data answer the following questions. All numbers must be rounded to the nearest integer. - What is the Takt time? in (seconds per unit) - Calculate the actual cycle times for each operation. - Cycle time for Operation \#1 is in seconds - Cycle time for Operation \#2 is in seconds - Cycle time for Operation \#3 is in seconds Calculate the production lead time (fill in the below blanks). Lead time for operation \#1 is (days) Lead time for operation \#2 is (days) Lead time for operation \#3 is (days) What is the capacity of this manufacturing cell per day? unit per day The current arrangement is (adequate, inadequate) in satisfying the daily demand
