Question: For Problem, determine:
(a) the fixed rate launching interval and
(h) the launch sequence of models A, B, and C during 1 hr or production.
Problem: Three models, A, B. and C, will be produced on a mixed model assembly line. Hourly production rate and work content time for model A are 10 units/hr and 45.1 min, for model B are 20 units/hr and 35.0 min, and for model C are 30 units/hr and 25.0 min. Line efficiency is 95%, balance efficiency is 0.94, repositioning efficiency E, = 0.93, and manning level M = 1. Determine how many workers and workstations must be on the production line to produce this workload.
