pipe, raw thermoplastic beads (or resin) were loaded in a hopper and mixed with additives such as colorants and IV inhibitors. The hopper fed a highly automated extrusion manufacturing line composed of an extruder for melting and mixing the raw materials, a die that determined the ultimate shape and diameter of the pipe, a vacuum tank for sizing and cooling, and cooling tanks. At the end of the extrusion line, the pipe was moved to a finishing line where identification marks were added. Stacked lengths
The inventor at BBC is categorized into three main groups: raw materials, finished goods, and packing materials. With increase of total inventory by almost 85% from 2009 to 2011, it is obvious that BBC is holding more than they are selling. BBC utilizes FIFO when dealing with inventory. Credit periods on loans fluctuated between 15 days
Introduction I want to thank you for having the time to meet with us today while taking the opportunity to present this proposal to your company. We are dedicated and willing to work with you to address your concerns while finding solutions to better your company and your future. We are open to all ideas to modify the recommendations we are going to present. We are excited for you to read our proposal and to hear your feedback. Question 1 Based on the information presented in the scenario/case
Cement production is the result of chemically combination of different materials. These materials include “calcium”, “silicon”, “aluminum”, “iron” and other materials such as clay and limestone. Moreover, the production process involves crushing and screening of certain amount of “calcium compounds”, “silica”, “alumina” and “iron oxide”. After this process the whole mixture is placed in “rotating cement kiln”. Different kind of materials are used in this regard. These include “limestone”, “sandstone”,
time distributions at each tool have changed. The LT factory began production by investing most of its cash into capacity and inventory. Specifically, on day 0, the factory began operations with three stuffers, two testers, and one tuner, and a raw materials inventory of 9600 kits. This left the factory with zero cash on hand. Customer demand
short-term results. They also believe that taking a retention directly after a study session would result in superior retention on delayed tests compared to repeatedly studying the material. This would result in proving that test taking as a better means to improve long term retention compared to re-presentation of material during testing. Methods In order to obtain this information on retention two experiments were conducted using psychological testing to collect data (Weiten, 2014). The first was
Q1: As described by the case study, explain the supply chain for Zara from raw material to consumer purchase. The supply chain is a system made amongst different companies producing and distributing the product. Specifically, the supply chain contains the steps it takes to deliver goods or services from the supplier to the customer. The supply chain from raw material to consumer it's from design and production to distribution and retailing. Zara has unique and
modeling is a Rapid prototype process of producing the component by the extrusion process with the basic principle of the material deposition it layer above the other by fusing it to the layer just beneath. The input file for this process is in standard STL data format. Multiple build materials are can be used in this process as the build material and for the supporting material. Fused Deposition modeling was invented by Stratasys. Inc for concept models development which is now used for making the
Supply chain management definition in operations management text book explain that the management of activities related to procuring materials and services, transforming them into intermediate goods and final products, and delivering them through a distribution system. The objective is to build a chain of suppliers that focus on maximizing value to the ultimate customer. Nestlé had their own supply chain vision in which to achieve high level of customer satisfaction through low cost, highly efficient
problems for people and why he wanted to invent it. It was first called an airbox. Governor Thomas wanted to patent this for the sole right but Benjamin denied him. It was made of tin from the ground so it was not as easily burned as the previous materials used. In addition to heat, Benjamin thought it would be good to use for cooking as well. It would been good for cooking , but it didn’t work. The stove sold poorly. The problem was the siphon . The smoke would go through the cold flue before it could
