- What is Kanban system?arrow_forwardGestalt, Inc. uses a kanban system in its automobile production facility in Germany. This facility operates 10 hours per day to produce the Jitterbug, a replacement for the obsolete but immensely popular Jitney Beetle. Suppose that a certain part requires 60 seconds of processing at machine cell 33B and an average container of parts averages 1.4 hours of waiting time there. Management has allowed a 12 percent buffer for unexpected occurrences. Each container holds 27 parts, and 5 containers are authorized. How much daily demand can be satisfied with this system? (Hint: Recall that p is the average processing time per container, not per individual part.) The average processing time per container of parts, p, is 0.045 day. (Enter your response rounded to three decimal places.) The average waiting time per container of parts, w, is day.
