Four manufacturing cells are served by an automatic guided vehicle (AGV) on a linear bidirectional track, as shown below. The product routing information and required production rates are given in the table below. Using an improvement-based procedure, determine a single-row cell arrangement. Assume that the pickup/delivery stations are located along the AGV track at the midpoint of the cell edge.
