Answer: 0.36

Explanation:

Given the following information :

Hours Wait time = 22.4

Process time = 7.3

Inspection time = 1.9

Move time = 4.5

Queue time = 6.6

The Manufacturing Cycle Efficiency (MCE) equals:

The ratio of the process time and the throughput time

The throughput time (Manufacturing cycle) regers to the duration of time required to manufacture a particular product.

It is usually the sum of the process, inspection, move and queue time.

Therefore, throughput time equals ;

(process + inspection + move + queue) time.

(7.3 + 1.9 + 4.5 + 6.6) = 20.3

MCE = PROCESS TIME / THROUGHPUT TIME

MCE = 7.3 / 20.3 = 0.3596 = 0.36
