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
containers computed in Question 33, what would be the new required
round-trip time, all else being constant?

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...
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...
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....
The welding department supplies parts to the final assembly line. Management decides to implement a kanban system and has collected the following data. The daily demand is 2,600 units. The production lead time is 6 days (this includes processing time, transport time, and waiting time). Management has decided to have 2 day(s) of safety stock One container fits 350 units How many kanban containers will be needed to support this system? (Round up to next whole number). containers

A. Issues [1] In addition to damages for one year's notice period, can a trial judge award significant damages for the mere fact of an employee's dismissal, or for the stigma that that dismissal brings? Or for the employer thereafter competing with the ex-employee for the clients, before the ex-employee has got a new job? B. Basic Facts [2] This is an appeal from 2009 ABQB 591 (CanLII), 473 A.R. 254. [3] Usually a judgment recites facts before law. But...
