A manufacturing assembly line has a demand for specific part of 1,200 parts per eight-hour day. It wants to design a lean system using containers. It takes about four hours to round-trip a container from one work center to the next and back again. It also wants to hold 10% safety stock of this part in its system. a) Design a container system. State each container's size and how many are needed. b) Calculate the maximum system inventory for this...

Suppose a Lean work center is being operated with a container size of 25 units and a demand rate of 100 units per hour. Also assume it takes 180 minutes lead time to fulfill a downstream container request. Assuming a safety stock factor of 5 percent, how many containers should be required? Select one: O a. none of these O b. 756.0 containers O c. 12.6 containers O d. 1,080.0 containers O e. 18.0 containers

Lady Bug Machineries uses a lean production assembly line to make its generators. In one assembly area, the demand is 200 parts per 8-hour day. It uses a container that holds 10 parts. It typically takes about 5 hours to round-trip a container from one work center to the next and back again. They also desire to hold a 20% safety stock of this part in the system. Based on the required safety stock of zero and the number of...

Copenhagen Industries uses a kanban system to manage production of their subassembly. In a 10-hour day, they use 1,500 units and use containers that can hold 50 units each. It takes 45 minutes to fill and move a container of parts to the right place on the subassembly line that is currently rated at a 15% safety factor. If the required safety stock was changed to zero and 3 containers were being used in the system, calculate the maximum inventory....

Boehm Compressors uses a lean production assembly line to make its compressors. In one assembly area, the demand is 100 parts per eight-hour day. It uses a container that holds eight parts. It typically takes about six hours to round-trip a container from one work center to the next and back again. It also desires to hold 15% safety stock of this part in the system. If it reduced the number of containers by one, how would this impact the...
