This document provides comments to each part on reference to the final exam. It also provides
reference answers to the problems. The original document offers reference problems on each
topic so the student creates its own learning and understanding. Furthermore, the original
document frames the information delivered in the lectures of the operations management
course (3BE216) during the semester. It includes theory and exercises that support the
learning experience of the students enrolled in this specific course and semester. It is not the
only source of knowledge of this course. Students are advised to explore other documents.
The presentations showed at the lectures (posted at the document server at ISIS), the
workshops during classes, the explanations of the exercises and the literature listed in the
course syllabus (also at InSIS) also comprises information that will be part of the final exam.
Additionally, the body of knowledge on the topic has a vast offer of several other documents
such books, textbooks, articles, webpage, etc.; that allow the students to excel in their
knowledge and preparation for the exam.

2. ABC Method
Identify the piece with the highest total demanded volume in the company using the ABC
method. The factory manufactures different types of furniture. All of their designs use a
subpart. The subpart changes in size. In the following technical drawing, you can notice that
all the dimensions of this subpart are only related with the length (X) of the piece. This means,
that by changing the length (X) of the piece, the other dimensions change proportionally.

Given that: Diameter (A) = 2/3 Diameter Diameter (B) = 1/3 Diameter
Diameter (Y) = 1/8 length (Y) (Y)
(X) Length (a) = 1/20 length (X) Length (b) = 1/4 length (X)

Then, since the article “Small Lamp” has the highest percentage share of the total volume in Okomentoval(a): [FM3]: For this exercise is not necessary to
calculate the volume of the holes inside the piece because the used
the warehouse, it must be and “A” item. Similar, the lowest percentage must be a “C”. In this volume of each piece does not change with or without holes. The
volume without the holes is necessary for the warehouse calculations

be in alignment of the Pareto principle. It means that few items must compile a lot of the total
volume and many of the items includes just few of the total volume. Since the total list of
items is 10, the “A” category should have 1 or 2 items. Then, the “C” category should be 5 up
to 6 items and the rest are “B” items. In this case, let’s keep the Item 6 alone as the “A”
category with 52%. Then, the small items with less than 1% must be “C” category. The
problems arise to determine the “B” category. My suggestion is to determine the “B” category
with the items 7, 1 and 3, which represent 38.5% of the total volume. This is less that the
52.5% of the “A” category and permits to have the rest of the items as “C” category (approx.
9%). Other suggestion is to make and extra level. This means Item 6 “A” with 52.5%, items 7
and 1 “B” with 28.25%, items 3 and 4 as “C” category with 18.25% and finally the rest with less
than 1% and a new category “D” with 1% of the total volume. Finally, you might what to have
the “A” category with 80%. Then, the selection of item 6, 7 and 1 fits this proposal.
Furthermore, we keep the small items with less than 1% as category “C” (1% of the total
volume) and the “B” category will be items 3 and 4 with 18.5%. In practice, the last
arrangement is a decision that uses these three options and other information such as
handling, suppliers’ reliability, etc.

3. Scheduling
The manufacturing facility works in 2 shifts of 12 hours. There is a TPM policy of 10min for
cleaning at the beginning and at the end of each shift. Workers need 15min to be ready at the
machines. There is a general organisational policy of 45min lunch (12:15) or supper (17:15)
break and 10min coffee break at each shift (9:00 and 20:00). Calculate the available working
time. Make a table with the shift schedule of the day.

At the document server, you can find the solution for the first test. The bottom slides of page
3 and the first of page 4 show the table requested for this exercise. Just change the number
of shifts and the hours per shift and find the real times of work. This schedule is crucial for you
as an operation manager to answer the question: When the production of an specific order
will be ready?

4. Work Standards
A special product can be manufactured with either of the two following technologies: CNC or
Lathe. The next table comprises the basic operations and their C/T:

C/T (min)
Operation
CNC Lathe
Preparing the workplace 2 1
Studying CAD and CAM 6 -
Studying drawing and manufacture procedures - 35
Preparing the tools 10 15
Revising the CAM simulation 0,5 -

Turning one piece 6 12
Checking one (each) piece 1 1
Placing each piece in the box 1 1
Handing over completed work 8 8
Cleaning the tools 4 4
Cleaning workplace 6 6

Moreover, this table does not include the operations related to handling the product and raw
material. But, you had measured them, and you know that the distance between manufacture Okomentoval(a): [FM4]: This is SUPER IMPORTANT. Take a
look of the table and you will see that these are timings with the
orders office and the new CNC is 25mts. The CNC is placed 10mts far from the warehouse. The machine, next to the machine or simple … here there are NOT all the
batch times of the specific order. Where are they?
lathe is next to the manufacture orders office at just 7mts, while is 45mts far from the
warehouse. The average worker walking speed is about 4 kilometres per hour (km/h). When
handling the raw materials or the final subpart with the hand truck, the speed reduces by 15%. Okomentoval(a): [FM5]: Here!

Additionally, you have to consider the size of both machines. The CNC has a length of 4mts
and a wide of 1mts. The loading area for the CNC fits the requirements of the maximum
loading capacity. The CNC’s loading capacity is 10 metal bars of 5mts each, which is the double Okomentoval(a): [FM6]: But, since the length of the loading
capacity of the machines is related with the raw materials, then, in the
of the capacity of the lathe. The CNC’s loaded window is placed in the narrow side of the exam, you must ask the people at material purchasing the length of
bars they will buy. The exercise no. 5 repeats the garage exercise for
machine. The box for final subparts is located under the CNC. The CNC worker needs an area previous exam, but the principle is the same. After you get to know
the length of these bars, then you will get to know how many meters
of 2,5m2 at the side of the machine. On that side, the machine has the keyboard, screen and to walk from each machine to the office and then to the warehouse
and then back to the machine.
other tools to fix the CAD/CAM information if necessary.
Okomentoval(a): [FM7]: Warning! The length of the bars
influence this exercise due the changes of the distances to walk.
Similar, it influences the LAYOUT of the facilities, the PROCESS
DIAGRAM and respectively the FLOWCHART.

The lathe is placed between the manufacture orders office and the new CNC. It also has
4x1mts. The working area for the operator is 2m 2. The operation to load the machine is similar
than the operation at the CNC. The worker places the final subparts in a box under the lathe.

Based on this information, make the layout of the factory, make the process diagram for both
technologies and complete the table with all the operations.

C/T (min)
Operation Okomentoval(a): [FM8]: In a similar table you must include
CNC Lathe ALL the activities of the manufacturing process. The table is an
example. It does not mean that you must fit all the activities in this
table. The complete table is the same that will be used for Process
Diagram.

bars with a length of 5.6 m. These steel metal bars are sold in bars with a length of 12 meters.
The supplier also offers a length of 7 m, because these are leftovers from another job.
a) Calculate the total demand of steel metal bars in meters and the coefficient of
material utilisation for both metal bar lengths 7 meters and 12 meters. (Do not
include the material losses due Cold saw. The material tolerance covers this waste).
b) Decide on the length of the steel metal bars. Argue your answer.
c) Next, consider whether it would be beneficial to buy steel metal bars on the exact
length required dimensions. The supplier offers this option at 12% extra of the
purchase price.
(SVOBODOVÁ, et al., 2012)

At the document server, you can find the solution for the first test. The page no. 4, 5 and 6
includes the solution of this exercise. For the final exam, just fit the exercise to answer the
issues of exercise No. 2 and 4.

6. Selection of a new technology. Okomentoval(a): [FM10]: The second test includes this type of
exercises.
The finance department of the company asks you to evaluate both technologies and the
option to outsource the manufacture of these pieces. You must calculate the materials costs
CZK/unit based on the required volume of the piece, the density of the material and the
average of the international price of the material. The exchange rate is 24,8CZK/USD. They
suggest you round up the materials costs CZK/unit.

CNC Lathe Outsource


Rent CZK / Month 0 0 350 000
Depreciation CZK / Month 70 000 90 000 0
Other fixed costs CZK / Month 35 000 190 000 115 000
Mat. costs CZK / unit ??? ??? 200
Payroll costs CZK / unit 80 40 0
Cost per unit 0 0 20
Monthly capacity 6 000 3 000 11 000

Calculate
a. Calculate the material cost of the raw material at the CNC and at the Lathe. Ask
your colleague from purchase for this data.

At the final exam, the material purchase department will be handling this information. For this
exercise, use the volume of the item with highest % of total volume (It should be an “A” item).
Add the percentage of material lost due cold saw and/or CMU. Check the density of the
material and the price and then make the calculation.
In this case, let’s assume that the
there is not lost due cold saw. The article to manufacture has 60cm length and the purchasing
possibilities are 12m and 7m. Then, it is possible to manufacture 200 units from the 12m bar
and 117 units from the 7m bar.
The price of Nickel 200 (check warehouse exercise in this document) is US $1-30 / Kilograms
(https://bit.ly/2Eh2CGg). Then, as longer the bars, the cheapest it is. I will assume that the
price is 1USD/kg since I will by 12mts bars. The total amount of the purchase it is not necessary Okomentoval(a): [FM11]: This decision influence the process

for this exercise but it is for the warehouse.
The volume of one item 6 is 0.00265072m3. The density of Nickel 200 is 8890kg/m3. Then, ONE
item requires 23.56kg of raw material and its price will be 23.56USD or 584CZK. Okomentoval(a): [FM12]: Use the volume of the item with
holes and you will get 22.35kg weight of the time to be stock in the
warehouse.

7. Sequencing
You have decided to explore the difference between both technologies by calculating the lead-
time of the possible sequencing plan at each technology. The order is 50 units. The production
process has 4 operations. The only change in the production process is the second operation,
which can be performed by the CNC or by the lathe. The parameters of the other operations
are presented in the next table.

8. Warehouse
Several changes in the manufacturing process imply a new layout for the warehouse of final
subparts. The new warehouse operational capacity is 75%. The selected product will be
storage in space with dimensions of 10m x 25m. The floor loading capacity of the entire
facilities is 4100 kg/m2. The boxes with final subparts are stored in wooden EUR pallets. The
boxes dimensions are 25x20x10cms. The final subparts in the box are separated by special soft
layers. The packaging materials are up to 2,5kg. The hand truck has a maximum loading
capacity of 1 ton. It needs an aisle of 130cms wide.

The product to be stored is made of Nickel 200

items 6 fit in one of the boxes? Unfortunately, the boxes we have are
smaller than the item to store. So, the decision is to storage the final
subpart item 6 just covered with the special soft layers. We assume
than those packaging materials requires 0.1cm more over the item 6
diameter. Therefore, the item over one pallet will looks like this.
