ISD 599/MFG 599 Homework No. 1 Module 3: SMART PRODUCTION SYSTEMS Due Feb 10, 2023 ____________________________________________________________________________ • Reading Assignment: Lecture Notes 1 and 2. • Problems: Problem 1. The efficiency, ??, of a machine can be increase by either increasing its average uptime, ??????, or decreasing its average downtime, ??????????. Is it better to increase ?????? by a certain factor or decrease ?????????? by the same factor, so that ?? is maximized? Problem 2. Consider a serial production line with eleven identical machines and ten identical buffers. Assume that one of the machines can be replaced by a more efficient one. Which machine should it be so that the throughput of the system is maximized? (Hint: Use the reversibility law to answer this question.) Problem 3. Consider a serial production line with ten identical machines and nine identical buffers. Assume that the capacity of one buffer can be increased. Which one should it be should be so that the throughput of the system is maximized? Problem 4: The layout of a production system for an automotive ignition device is shown in Figure 1. It consists of four main operations: Housing Subassembly, Valve Body Assembly, Injector Subassembly, and Injector Final Assembly. In addition, the system contains Shell Assembly, three Welding operations (L.H.W., U.H.W., and Weld), two Overmold operations (O.M.1 and O.M.2), two Set Stroke operations (Stroke 1 and Stroke 2), one Leak Test operation (L.T.) and one High Potential operation (Hi Pot). Finally, the system includes five buffers positioned as shown in Figure 1 and conveyor buffering among all other operations. Construct a structural model for this system and simplify it to an assembly line with one merge operation. Figure 1 Problem 5. The layout of a production system for another automotive ignition device is shown in Figure 2. It consists of 15 operations, separated by buffer- conveyors. Construct a structural model for this system and simplify it to a serial line. Figure 2 Problem 6. Consider a two-machine Bernoulli line and assume that N = 5 and ??1??2 = 0.81. (a) Under this constraint, find ??1 and ??2, which maximize PR. (You may use the trial and error method to accomplish this; alternatively, you may think a little bit, look at the expressions for ????, make an “educated guess” and verify it by calculations.) (b) For these ??1 and ??2, calculate PR, WIP, ????1 and ????2. What can you say about qualitative features of WIP, ????1 and ????2? (c) Interpret the results and formulate a conjecture concerning the optimal allocation of ????’s. (d) What is the interrelation of ????1 and ????2 under this allocation? (e) What is the relationship between ?????? and buffer capacity? Problem 7. Consider a two-machine Bernoulli production line and suppose that each machine produces a good part with probability ???? and a defective part with probability 1 − ???? , ?? = 1,2. Assume that quality control devices operate in such a manner that a defective part is removed from the system immediately after the machine that produced this part. Derive the formulas for the production rate of good parts, ??????, and for ??????,????1 and ????2 in this system. (Hint: Use ??1??1 as the new parameter, ??1′ , of the first machine.) Problem 1. From the reading materials PDF file Page 114, Question #5. You do NOT need to draw the string diagram, multicolumn process chart, and the from-to chart. Please consider a sequential layout of 1->3->4->5->6-2->7, (1) compute the layout efficiency based on string diagram (2) Generate from-to chart, assume all the products are the same in weight. (3) Compute the penalty points of the layout based on the from-to chart. Assume no penalty for back-tracking. Also, computer the layout efficiency based on the from-to chart. Problem 2. Problem 3. Page 246, 12.3 (please indicate the detailed sequence of departments going into the picture). Problem 1. There are 8 departments in the plant and the relationship chart is given as follows. Consider SLP method.
