It has determined that it must produce 300 watches per 10-hour day to meet the forecasted demand for the product. Use line balancing and the information below to create a simple product layout for the manufacturing plant. Answer the questions below and show your work just as we did in class and in the line balancing examples. Task Task Time (seconds) Immediate Predecessor Number of Followers 29 B 33 9 B D 20 E 24 1 F 22 E G 21 F H 14 D 1 10 J 28 1 K 32 H Total Instructions: Determine the Number of Followers for each task and the total of the task times in the table above. Then answer the questions on the next page. A(29) B(33) C(9) D(20) H(14) K(32) E(24) F(22) G(21) (10) J(28) Problem 45 (continued) Calculate the required Cycle Time per unit. If you calculate a fractional value, round up to an integer value. Cycle Time - Operating Time per Day/Desired Output Rate Note: Operating Time must be converted to the same time units as task times. Cycle Time Calculate the Theoretical Minimum Number of Workstations. Theoretical Minimum Number of WS - Sum of Task Times/Cycle Time Note: To avoid being short processing capacity, the number of workstations must always be rounded up. Theoretical Minimum Balance the line using the table on the next page. I Using the previously calculated Cycle Time, assign tasks to work stations using the Greatest Number of Followers Rule. Note: In the case of a tie, the task with the longest task time should be assigned first to a workstation.
