Question

Hart Manufacturing operates an automated steel fabrication process. For one operation, Hart has found that 53% of the total throughput (manufacturing cycle) time is spent on non-value-added activities. Delivery cycle time is 12.00 hours, waiting time during the production process is 4.00 hours, queue time prior to starting the production process is 2 hours, and inspection time is 1.0 hours.

What is the throughput (manufacturing cycle) time for the operation? (Round your answer to 2 decimal places.)

Explanation / Answer

Hi,

Please find the answer as follows:

Delivery Cycle Time = Wait Time + Throughput Time

12 = 4 + Throughput Time

Throughput Time = 12 - 4 = 8 Hours.

Answer is 8 hours.

Thanks.
