The drilling operation occurs separately from, and simultaneously with the sawing and sanding operations. Welding starts when both drilling and sanding operations have been completed. After welding, a product needs to go through only one of the three assembly operations (the operations are in parallel, where parallel lines perform the exact same operation). Considering the process times at stations, what is the process time of the system (in min/unit)?A production process at Kenneth Day Manufacturing is shown in the figure below.

Orders are collected from each person at the end of the day and checked for errors by the supervisor of the phone department, usually the following morning. The supervisor does not send each one-day batch of orders to the data processing department until after 1:00 p.m. In the next step—data processing—orders are invoiced in the one-day batches. Then they are printed and matched back to the original orders. At this point, if the order is from a new customer, it is sent to the person who did the customer verification and setup of new customer accounts. This process must be completed before the order can be invoiced. The next step—order verification and proofreading—occurs after invoicing is completed. The orders, with invoices attached, are given to a person who verifies that all required information is present and correct to permit typesetting. If the verifier has…

The manufacturing process includes stamping, final assembly, testing and shipping. In the stamping operation, a number of individuals are responsible for stamping the steel outer surface of the appliance. The stamping operation is set up prior to each run. A run of 75 stamping is completed after each setup. A setup requires 40 minutes the parts wait for the setup to be completed before stamping begins. Each stamping requires 5 minutes of operating time. After each batch is completed, the operator moves stamp the stamped covers to the final assembly area. This move takes 10 minutes to complete. The final assembly for each appliance unit requires 18 minutes and is also done in batches of 75 appliance units. The batch of 75 appliance units is moved into the test building, which is crossed street. The move takes 25 minutes. In the final test, the 75 unit batch is tested one at a time. Each test…The magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) unit of St Francis hospital has 2 MRI machines and sees two kinds of patients, “regular” patients and “contrast” patients. The regular patients don’t need any special preparation before imaging but the contrast patients receive an injection of “dye” that enables the physicians to see the images more clearly. Regular patients require 15 minutes in an MRI machine whereas contrast patients take on average 25 minutes in an MRI machine. Over an 8-hour day, the MRI unit receives an average of 25 regular patients and 5 contrast patients. Convert the demand and capacity into "hours of work per day" to answer the following questions: (a) What is the implied utilization (as a %) of the MRI unit? % (Round your answer to whole number) Hint: First calculate the demand in hours of work per day: If there are 5 Contrast patients per day and each Contrast patient takes 25 minutes to 'process', how many 'minutes of work' are demanded every day from…

- In the pharmaceutical industry, there are a lot of containers used that have to be set up differently for production of each active pharmaceutical ingredient. Once the equipment is set up, they complete several production runs of a given active ingredient before moving on to the next. This is most consistent with: O A job process O A batch process O A line process A continuous process. Kinga Doll Company manufactures eight versions of its popular girl doll, Shari. Thecompany operates on a 40-hour workweek. The eight versions differ in doll skin, hair,and eye color, enabling most children to have a doll with a similar appearance to them.It currently sells an average of 4000 dolls (spread equally among its eight versions) perweek to boutique toy retailers. In simplified terms, doll making at Kinga involves threebasic operations: molding the body and hair, painting the face, and dressing the doll.Changing over between versions requires setup time at the molding and painting stationsdue to the different colors of plastic pellets, hair, and eye color paint required. Table 7.5lists the setup times for a batch and the activity times for each unit at each step.a. What is the process capacity in dolls per hour with a batch size of 500 dolls? b. What is the utilization of molding in dolls per hour with a batch size of 800 dolls? c.
