- A bottling plant fills 1,200 bottles every two hours. The lead time is 50 minutes and a container accommodates 90 bottles. The safety stock is 10 percent of expected demand. How many kanban cards are needed? (Round up your answer to the next whole number.)
Homework Answers
Given : d =1200 bottles every two hours =600 bottles per hour
L=50 minutes =50/60 =5/6 hour
S=10 % of expected demand=0.1*600*5/6 =50 bottles
C=90 bottles
Number of Kanban cards ,N=(d*L)+S/C
=(500+50)/90 =550/90
=6.111=7 (round up)
Number of Kanban cards needed=7

Meritor is so pleased with the outcome from previous suggestions that the consultants are invited back for more work. The consultants now suggest a more complete robotic automation of the making of muffler assemblies and also a reduction in container size to four per container. Meritor implements these suggestions and the result is that the muffler assembly fabrication cell now averages approximately 30 assemblies per hour, and the catalytic converter assembly cell can now respond to an order for a...
