Would there be any reduction in manufacturing lead


1. An order for 100 of a product is run on work center 40. The setup time is 4 hours, and the run time is 3 minutes per piece. Since the order is a rush and there are two machines in the work center, it is decided to split the order and run it on both machines. Calculate the manufacturing lead time before and after splitting.

2. In problem 1, what would be the manufacturing lead time if the second machine could not be set up until the setup on the first machine was completed? Would there be any reduction in manufacturing lead time?
