1-A four-station line with single machine stations, where the average processing times are 3, 6, 5, and 4 minutes respectively for stations 1, 2, 3, and 4: give the line throughput (assume WIP > critical WIP)
2- Consider a four-station line in which all stations consist of single machines. Station 2 has an average processing time of 6 minutes per job while the remaining stations have average processing times of 3 minutes per job. Answer the following under the assumption that process times are deterministic (as in the best case):?
If the WIP level for the line is set at 120 jobs, what is the average cycle time?
