Enablers for
Unattended Cell Operation
For mixed model production:
All of the preceding enablers, plus:
Work unit identification:
Automatic identification (e.g., bar codes) or sensors
that recognize alternative features of starting units
If starting units are the same, work unit identification
is unnecessary
Capability to download programs for each work unit
style (programs prepared in advance)
Capability for quick changeover of physical setup

Parts Storage Subsystem and
Automatic Parts Transfer
If all the parts are identical and require the same machine cycle,
UT = npTc
In reality, unattended time will be less than UT because the
worker needs time to unload finished parts and load raw
work parts into the storage subsystem

Example 14.1 Determining number of
workstations
A total of 800 shafts must be produced in the lathe section of the
machine shop during a particular week. Each shaft is identical and
requires a machine cycle time Tc = 11.5 min. All of the lathes in
the department are equivalent in terms of their capability to
produce the shaft in the specified cycle time. How many lathes
must be devoted to shaft production during the given week, if there
are 40 hours of availability time on each lathe?

Example 14.2 Number of Setups is
Known
A total of 800 shafts must be produced in the lathe section of the
machine shop during a particular week. The shafts are of 20
different types, and each type is produced in its own batch. Average
batch size is 40 parts. Each batch requires a set up and average set
up time is 3.5 hr. The average machine cycle time to produce a
shaft Tc = 11.5 min. How many lathes are required during the
week?

Known
This is similar to Example 14.2 , but the number of setups is equal
to the number of machines that will be required, n and we do not
yet know what that number is. The setup takes 3.5 hr. how many

Example 14.4 Including Availability,
Utilization and Defect Rate
Suppose that Example 14.2 the anticipated availability of the lathes
is 100% during setup and 92% during the production run, and the
expected utilization for calculation purposes is 100%. The fraction
defect rate for the lathe work of this type is 5%. Other data from
Example 14.1 are applicable. How many lathes are required during
the week, given this additional information?
