The Answer is The takt time is 60 ∗ 60/40 = 90 seconds per unit.The tasks assigned to stations are:
Station 1: A = 25 seconds,65 seconds remaining at station 1
Station 1: B = 35 seconds,30 seconds remaining at station 1
Station 1: C = 20 seconds,10 seconds remaining at station 1
Station 2: D = 55 seconds,35 seconds remaining at station 2
Station 2: G = 35 seconds,0 seconds remaining at station 2
Station 3: E = 45 seconds,45 seconds remaining at station 3
Station 3: H = 40 seconds,5 seconds remaining at station 3
Station 4: F = 15 seconds,75 seconds remaining at station 4
Station 4: J = 25 seconds,50 seconds remaining at station 4
Station 4: K = 30 seconds,20 seconds remaining at station 4
The percent idle time is 35/360 = 9.72%
The cycle time cannot be reduced since station 2 uses the entire 90 second cycle time.Therefore,the greatest output that can be achieved with this arrangement is 40 units per hour for 320 units per eight-hour day.
