. Aquatica makes underwater camera housings for divers. The process begins with a solid rectangular block of aluminum that is used to make a single housing. A computer numerically controlled (CNC) machine drills into the block to make the metal “frame” of the housing. Each block requires 15 minutes of drilling. The frame is then chemically treated in a series of baths. There is ample capacity in the treating stage. Finally, a worker must manually attach the various buttons and components to the metal housing. This assembly takes 120 minutes per housing per worker and Aquatica has 6 workers trained to do this task. The CNC machine requires a 30-minute setup time before the production of a batch can begin. a. If the CNC machine produces 14 housings between setups, what would be its capacity (in housings per hour)? b. Assuming the process is supply-constrained, what is the utilization (as a number between 0 and 1) of the CNC machine if it operates in batches of 14 housings? c. Assuming…
Motorking Corporation, a market leader in the production of specialized engine additives, is considering introducing a new "gas extender" product. This product is added to an automobile’s gasoline to extend mileage and reduce exhasut emissions. Motorking's manufacturing facility can produce 50,000 cases of the new product per year with a set-up cost of $100,000. The average variable cost per case would be $5. Large orders, (i.e., above 50,000 cases) will be subcontracted to a local refining company. Motorking has signed a secrecy agreement with the vendor that guards the basic process. The variable cost per case, if the new product is produced outside, is $9. Whether the product is manufactured by Motorking or by the vendor, there is a $12 per case cost for marketing and overhead. Motorking's production manager is considering three production levels for the new product: 50,000 cases, 75,000 cases, and 100,000 cases. The level of sales will depend on the state of the economy.

Recall "Tommy's Dresses to go" case. Three years after, this company still rents designer dresses to customers, but it has managed to streamline its internal processes and expand to different segments of demand. Now, customers can rent clothes for anywhere between 1 days to 30 days, and each customer is sent only one (1) dress (instead of 2 dresses described in the case). The company alsó takes only 13 number of days to turn around a dress (i.e., this the duration starting with return from a customer, to again being rented out to a customer). The current demand is an average of 1,000 customers per day, and the company owns total of 30 thousand dresses. What is the average rental duration? (i.e., what is the average number of days, a customer keeps a dress).
Sawing 20 min/unit Sanding 20 min/unit Drilling 32 min/unit Welding 30 min/unit Assembly 93 min/unit Assembly 93 min/unit Assembly 93 min/unit A production process is shown in the figure above. The drilling operation occurs separately from, and simultaneously with the sawing and sanding operations. Welding starts when both drilling and sanding operations have been completed. After welding, a product needs to go through only one of the three assembly operations (the operations are in parallel, where parallel lines perform the exact same operation). Considering the process times at stations, what is the process time of the system (in min/unit)?

Lead Time Gourmet Helper Appliance Company manufactures home kitchen appliances. The manufacturing process includes stamping, final assembly, testing and shipping. In the stamping operation, a number of individuals are responsible for stamping the steel outer surface of the appliance. The stamping operation is set up prior to each run. A run of 75 stamping is completed after each setup. A setup requires 40 minutes the parts wait for the setup to be completed before stamping begins. Each stamping requires 5 minutes of operating time. After each batch is completed, the operator moves stamp the stamped covers to the final assembly area. This move takes 10 minutes to complete. The final assembly for each appliance unit requires 18 minutes and is also done in batches of 75 appliance units. The batch of 75 appliance units is moved into the test building, which is crossed street. The move takes 25 minutes. In the final test, the 75 unit batch is tested one at a time. Each test…
