(ANSWER FULLY)

 

1.- You have the following manufacturing system: 10% B1 C M1 10% 20% I 90% B21 40% + B22 30% B23 M21 60% Si M22 M23 50% B31 40% B32 M31 M32 50% B4 80% 20% M4 Knowing that the processing times to at each station are the following (in hr): M1, 0.25; M21, 0.30247; M22, 0.40833; M23, 0.65333; M31, 0.58333; M32, 0.35507; M4, 0.101240 , calculate the maximum arrival rate the would prevent the formation of bottlenecks, and use it to calculate the following: * throughput, for each station. * utilization, for each station. *the total flowtime. *the lot-size diagram. *the WIP diagram.
