Your assembly line with 5 tasks is to be balanced.
The longest task takes 3.2 minutes to complete, and the total time for all tasks is 16.8 minutes. The line operates 435 minutes per day.
How many workstations are needed if management wants 925 units to be produced each day?
Homework Answers
Minimum cycle time of the line (Length of longest task) = 3.2 minutes
Maximum cycle time of the line = 16.8 minutes
Number of workstations needed for 925 units (considering mini. cycle time) = 925 * 3.2 / 435 =6.80 or 7 workstations
