The XYZ Company is planning a new product line and a new factory to produce the parts and assembly the final products. The product line will include 10 different models. Annual production of each model is expected to be 1000 units. Each product will be assembled of 300 components, but 65 % of these will be purchased parts( not made in the new factory).There are an average of 8 processing operations required to produce each component, and each processing step takes 30 sec(including an allowance for setup time and part handling ). Each final unit of product takes 48 min to assemble. All processing operations are performed at single workstations consisting of one worker each plus assembly fixtures and tooling. Each work cell and each workstation require 25m^2 of floor space and an additional allowance of 45% must be added to the total production area for aisles, work in process storage, shipping and receiving, rest rooms and other utility space. The factory will operate one shift (the day shift, 2000 hr/yr). Determine (a) How many processing and assembly operations, (b) how many workers (direct labor only) and (c) how much total floor space will be required in the plant.
