Answer: 2minutes
Explanation:
Cycle time is the time between the starting and completion of a process. The average time taken to complete in between the process is the cycle time.
Given
No of units produced = 375 El
No of operational hours = 750 minutes
Calculation of cycle time for this assembly line
The formula for cycle time = 1/Throughput rate.
Throughput rate = (Units Produced or Tasks completed)/ Time
=375/750
=0.5
Throughput rate =0.5
cycle time = 1/Throughput rate
=1/0.5
=2 minutes
The required cycle time for the assembly line is 2 minutes.
The cycle time is the time taken or the time difference between the starting time and the time taken to complete the process. it can be used to take future decisions for processing the similar task.
Computation:
Given,
Units produced =375 El
Operational hours =750 minutes
First, the throughout rate is computed:
The formula used is:
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Throughout Rate}&=\dfrac{\text{Units Produced }}{\text{Operational Hours}}\end{aligned}[/tex]
Substituting the values in the formula:
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Throughout Rate}&=\dfrac{375}{750}\\&=0.5\end{aligned}[/tex]
Now using the value of throughout rate for computing the cycle time:
[tex]\begin{aligned}\text{Cycle Time}&=\dfrac{1}{\text{Throughout Rate}}\\&=\dfrac{1}{0.5}\\&=2\;\text{minutes}\end{aligned}[/tex]
Thus, the cycle time is 2 minutes.
