The term "assembly line" refers to the progressive assemblylined by some material handling device.

TRUE

Assembly lines are a special case of product layout.

TRUE

Assembly-line balancing means assigning all necessary tasks to a series of workstations so that each workstation has no more than can be done in the workstation cycle time and so that idle time across all workstations is minimized.

TRUE

For the purposes of assembly-line balancing, cycle time i found by dividing production time per day by the required units of output per day.

TRUE

We would expect to see in a manufacturing cell layout which of the following?

A small team of workers who turn out complete units of work

Which of the following basic types of production layout formats is one in which equipment or work processes are arranged according to the progressive steps by which the product is made?

Assembly line layout

Some of the suggestions for a good layout for manufacturing and back-office operations include which of the following?

Backtracking kept to a minimum

Which of the following is not among the suggestions for a good layout for manufacturing and back-office operations?

Brightly covered walls and good lighting

Which of the following is not considered an input to the layout decision in facility layout analysis?

Cost per square foot of alternative facilities.

Which of the following is not a step in developing a manufacturing cell layout?

Disposing of leftover machinery and outsourcing ungrouped processes

Assembly lines are a special case of a project layout.

FALSE

If the sum of the task times required to produce a product is 80 minutes and the cycle time for the same product is 15 minutes, the theoretical minimum number of workstations is 8 using the assembly-line balancing procedure.

FALSE

In a good layout design for a manufacturing facility, it is acceptable to have backtracking by personnel in the delivery of a customers product.

FALSE

In balancing an , workstation cycle time has to be less than the time between successive units coming off the end of the line.

FALSE

Systematic layout planning is used to design products.

FALSE

The assembly-line balancing procedure determines the precedence relationships of manufacturing tasks.

FALSE

The efficiency of an assembly line is found by a ration of the sum of all task times decided by the cycle time.

FALSE

Some of the suggestions for a good layout for face-to-face services include which of the following?

Lack of clutter

In the design of retail service layouts, the term "ambient conditions" could refer to which of the following?

Lighting

Which of the following is a basic type of production layout format?

Manufacturing cell

Which of the following is not basic type of production layout format?

Process layout

Which of the following is not a benefit of a manufacturing cell layout?

Reduced Cost

When balancing an assembly line, which of the following is not a way to reduce the longest task time below the required workstation cycle time?

Speed up the assembly line transfer mechanism

In the design of retail service layouts, the term "ambient conditions" does not refer to which of the following?

Staffing

A manufacturing cell layout is similar to the work center and assembly-line layouts.

TRUE

A project layout is characterized by a high degree of task ordering.

TRUE

If the sum of the task times required to produce a product is minutes and the cycle time for the same product is 10 minutes, the theoretical minimum number of workstations is 5 using the assembly-line balancing procedure.

TRUE

In assembly-line balancing, the theoretical minimum number of workstations is found by a ration of the sum of all task times divided by the cycle time.

TRUE

In designing a production layout a flexible line layout might have the shape of a "U."

TRUE

In designing a production line, a mixed-model line layout is used by JIT manufactures.

TRUE

The first step in balancing an assembly line is to specify the precedence relationships among tasks to be performed on the line.

TRUE

The term "servicescape" refers to which of the following?

The physical surroundings in which the services takes place

In the design of retail service layouts, the term "ambient conditions" could refer to which of the following?

Temperature

Which of the following basic types of production layout formats is one that has similar equipment or functions are grouped together?

Workcenter Layout

A manufacturing cell groups the same or similar machines into cells to work on products that have dissimilar shapes and dissimilar processing requirements.

FALSE

A project layout is similar to the the basic production layout format of the work center.

FALSE

As a general rule, manufacturing workstations should not be very close together.

FALSE

Having a lot of interstage storage of materials is considered a good layout design for a manufacturing plant.

FALSE

A project layout is characterized by a relatively low number of production units in comparison with workcenter and assembly-line formats.

TRUE

A straight-line flow pattern is considered a good layout design for a back-office service operations.

TRUE

A work center is a basic production layout format in which similar equipment or functions are grouped together.

TRUE

A work center layout is similar to the basic production format of job-shop.

TRUE

An assembly-line layout is similar to the basic production format of flow-shop layout.

TRUE

The objective of a mixed-model line layout is to meet the demand for a variety of products and avoid building high inventories.

TRUE

The objective of a retail service layout is to maximize net profit per square foot of store space

TRUE

A manufacturing cell groups dissimilar machines to work on products that have similar shapes and processing requirements.

FALSE
