What is the server utilization for an ergonomically design workstation with parts arriving at 3 parts per minute and is capable of handling 1 parts per minute. The workstation has 2 machines each having the ability to handle parts. ( 1 ppmin). Answer to one decimal place.
Solution: arrival rate= 3 per min
service rate= 1 per min
no. of servers, n= 2
Utilization= arrival rate/(n*service rate) = 3/2= 1.5

Suppose a workstation receives parts automatically from a conveyor. An accumulation line has been provided at the workstation and has a storage capacity for 5 parts (N=6). Parts arrive randomly at the switching junction for the workstation; if the accumulation line is full, parts are diverted to another workstation. Parts arrive at a Poisson rate of 1 per minute; service time at the workstation is exponentially distributed with a mean of 45 seconds. a. What is the rate at which...

Arena Simulation Modeling In Model 3-1, suppose that instead of having a single source of parts, there are three sources of arrival, one for each of three different kinds of parts that arrive: blue (as before), Green, and Red. For each color of arriving part, inter-arrival times are exponentially distributed with a mean of 16 minutes. Run the simulation for 480 minutes, and compute the same performance measures as for Model 3-1. Once the parts are in the system, they...
