Below is a partial current state VSM of a production process. In the Stenciling step a single machine, which is manned full-time by a single operator, is used to perform the operation. In the packaging step, the product is packaged into boxes by three employees working full-time. No machines are used in the packaging step. Employees work 7.5 hours a day. What is the minimum batch size that would enable the stenciling operation to meet daily demand:

5000 units.

Explanation:

Kindly check the attachment for the diagram.

In order to solve this question that is the Determination of the minimum batch size that would enable the stenciling operation to meet daily demand, what we have to do is to divide the total number of time operation done per day by the Takt time.

The takt time = 7.5 hours a day × 3600/ 5000 daily demand rate.

The Takt time = 5.4 seconds.

Hence, the minimum batch size that would enable the stenciling operation to meet daily demand = 5000 from the given diagram
