Description
- Question 1
| Below is a flow diagram for the production process of Excellent Manufacturing, Inc. Currently, the process is being used to make Product X. Production times are as follows A: 10min/prod, B: 20 min/prod, and C:15 min/prod
Please identify the bottleneck and calculate the capacity of the process. |
||||
- Question 2
| Excellent Manufacturing, Inc. also uses the following process to make Product Y. Cycle times (i.e., how long it takes each station to work on a product) are included in the diagram. Assume that the process has been running for a long time.
Is any task starved or blocked? |
||||
- Question 3
| Excellent Manufacturing, Inc. also uses the following process to make Product Y. Cycle times (i.e., how long it takes each station to work on a product) are included in the diagram. Assume that the process has been running for a long time.
Calculate the throughput rate (you can assume the demand rate to be very large) |
||||
- Question 4
| Excellent Manufacturing, Inc. also uses the following process to make Product Y. Cycle times (i.e., how long it takes each station to work on a product) are included in the diagram. Assume that the process has been running for a long time.
Calculate the utilization of each station (you can assume the demand rate to be very large) |
||||
- Question 5
| Excellent Manufacturing, Inc. also uses the following process to make Product Y. Cycle times (i.e., how long it takes each station to work on a product) are included in the diagram. Assume that the process has been running for a long time.
Calculate the throughput time |
||||
- Question 6
| Excellent Manufacturing, Inc. also uses the following process to make Product Y. Cycle times (i.e., how long it takes each station to work on a product) are included in the diagram. Assume that the process has been running for a long time.
Calculate the average inventory in the process (in Task1 and Task 2). You can assume the demand rate to be very large. |
