Each employee takes two 8 minute rest breaks and one 25 lunch break each shift. The company has 2 shifts per work day each with 4 employees. Compute the takt time if the company is planning to produce 1325 JU-4s.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The appropriate answer is "[tex]0.657 \ mins/JU-4s[/tex]".

Explanation:

Given:

Demand,

= 1325 JU-4s

1 day = 2 shifts

Assuming a shift is of 8 hours duration.

then,

[tex]1 \ shift = (8\times 60)-(20+25)[/tex]

           [tex]=480-45[/tex]

           [tex]=435 \ mins[/tex]

Total day mins,

= [tex]435\times 2[/tex]

= [tex]870 \ mins[/tex]

hence,

The average throughput rate will be:

= [tex]\frac{870 \ mins}{1325 \ JU-4s}[/tex]

= [tex]0.657 \ mins/JU-4s[/tex]
