Question:
Use the eightstation assembly cell to answer the next several questions. Also, assume the following: times Holding areas are placed between subgroups eg shown as a b c and d Workers assigned to only one station have zero walk time but need seconds to pick and place items. Walk time between any holding area and the nearest workstation is always seconds. Stationtostation walk times are as shown in the following table. Walk time between any two holding areas is the median of the walk times of the four stations involved ignore any s For example, as shown in the boxed area in the table, if one holding area is between stations and and the other is between station and the walk time between them is To station From station In In Out a Divide the cell among four workers so times for them are as similar as possible. What is the resulting cell CT and daily capacity? b Repeat a for six workers. What is the cell CT and capacity? c What is the unit manufacturing cost for four workers? Assume machine operating cost is $ and a labor rate of $h Given this result and results in the chapter for other numbers of workers, what number of workers gives the lowest unit manufacturing cost?
