Question

Iron Man Foundry produces multiple products, one of which is casting a hose nozzle. The daily demand for these nozzles is 1,000 units per day. If Iron Man currently operates one shift of eight hours what would be the Takt time

Answer 1

Answer: 0.48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Takt time = Net time available / Daily demand

Net time available is number of minutes in a shift so:

= 8 hours * 60 minutes

= 480 minutes

Daily demand = 1,000 units

Takt time = 480 / 1,000

= 0.48 minutes
