6. The Harmon Music Company produces a variety of wind instruments at its plant in Joliet, linois. As the company is relatively small, it would like to minimize the amount of money tied up in inventory, and for that reason, production levels are set to match predicted demand as closely as possible. In order to achieve this goal, the company has adopted an MRP system to determine production quantities. The figure below shows the trumpet and various subassemblies LT 1 Week Bell Assembly(1) LT-2 weeks Valve L1: 4 weeks alves (3) LT 3 Weeks LT 2 weeks The demand for the trumpets for weeks 9-18 is given in the table below. Production and MRP for weeks 1-8 have been planned throughout, and cannot be altered. 9 10 11 12 13 1415 16 17 18 24 18 2 312 20 25 829 15 19 2 6 62 25 0 45 45 Suppose that the valves are produced in 3 work centers: 100, 200, and 300. At work center 100, molten brass is poured into the form used to shape the valve and takes 1 IE 470 Manufacturing Systems Design & Analysis Fall 2018 week. At work center 200the holes are drilled in the valves, taking 1 more week. Finally, at work center 300, the valve is polished and the surface is graded, taking 1 more week. The final products will be ready for use. A summary of information for the work centers is given below Work Center 100 Work Center 200 Work Center 300 Machine Throughput units/planning period) 130 150 170 Perform a capacity analysis to determine if you have enough capacity to make what is required. Using the available information try to develop a feasible delivery plan that minimizes the number of late items. Show all v your work. 6.
