The number of kanbans that should circulate between two workstations  is 5.

Number of kanbans

Given:

Demand=500

Lead time=20

Container size=35

Safety factor=5

Hence:

Number of kanbans=[(500×0.33) +(0.05×500)×.33)]/35

Number of kanbans=165+8.25/35

Number of kanbans=173.25

Number of kanbans=4.95

Number of kanbans=5 (Approximately)

Therefore the number of kanbans that should circulate between two workstations  is 5.
