The cycle time for performing a certain task has been clocked at
13
minutes. The performance rating of Richard Muszynski III was estimated at
120%.
Common practice in this department is to allow 6 minutes of personal time and 4 minutes of fatigue time per hour. In addition, there should be an extra allowance of 3 minutes per hour for inspection.
a) The normal time for the operation is = ? minutes (round your response to one decimal place).
How many work cycles should be timed to estimate the average cycle time to within 2 percent ofthe sample mean with a confidence of 99 percent if a pilot study yielded these times (minutes):5.2, 5.5, 5.8, 5.3, 5.5, and 5.1? The standard deviation is .253 minutes per cycle.
5. The manager of Asombrado Bounty Office, Charles Badillo, estimates his employees are idle 25%of the time. With that problem, how many work samples are needed to consider within 3%accuracy and have 95.45% confidence level.
6. At ASP Micro Manufacturing, Inc. workers press semiconductor into predrilled slots on printed-circuit boards. Determine the normal time of the operation in seconds. The elemental motions for normal time used by the company are as follows:• Reach 6 inches for semiconductors 10.5 TMU• Grasp the semiconductors 8.0 TMU• Move semiconductor to printed-circuit board 9.5 TMU• Position semiconductor 20.1 TMU• Press semiconductor into slots 20.3 TMU• Move board aside 15.8 TMU
7. The semiconductor used in Costin Calculator has 5 components with the consistency of 90%, 95%,98%, 90%, and 99%, respectively. How reliable is one product of calculator?
