Q1. A manufacturing facility consists of five departments namely A, B, C, D and E. The routing for
products and their forecasted production rates are given in the table. Suppose that all four products are
produces in batches of size 50.

d. Weedjet Manufacturing Int. has currently arranged five equipment types as A, B, C, D, and E.
Coordinates of these five machines are (10; 7.5), (20; 20), (60; 12.5), (35; 7.5) and (5; 20) respectively.
Calculate distance measures using Euclidean, Squared Euclidean, Rectilinear(Manhattan),
Tchebychev.

Q3.

Welch Allyn is a manufacturer of medical diagnostic equipment. In the given list above, ordered list of
machines visited by each part is presented. Production volume of the parts and batch size information is given
in the table below. Using the given information, determine relationship between machines in terms of flow.

Flow Matrix:

Q4. Consider the part routing information in Q3. Assume that two MHDs-a forklift truck and an AGV- are
used to transport the material. AGV can transport 20 units of each part type whereas the forklift truck can
handle only 10 units. The AGV is used to transport all the parts to and from Machine 6. The forklift truck is
used for the remaining material transfer. How does it compare to the one in the previous calculation?

The revised frequency of trips matrix is shown below. Since the AGV performs material transfers to and from
machine 6 only, only row and column 6 change. The number of trips in this row and column are cut in half
compared to the previous flow matrix.

Q5. Consider the part-routing information given below. Values in the each cell represent the sequence of the
related production step. Suppose that in the current layout design coordinates of the machines are (10; 15), (20;
20); (60; 15); (15; 35) and (5; 20) respectively. Calculate the actual flow with considering the distances
between machines (Use Manhattan distance measure in your calculations) and write brief explanations for your
results.
