A7-station transfer line has been observed over a 40-hour period. the process times at each station are as follows: station 1, 0.80 min; station 2, 1.10 min; station 3, 1.15 min; station 4, 0.95 min; station 5, 1.06 min; station 6, 0.92 min; and station 7, 0.80 min. the transfer time between stations = 6 sec. the number of downtime occurrences = 110, and hours of downtime = 14.5 hours. a proposal has been submitted to locate a storage buffer (capacity = 20) between stations 4 and 5 to improve line efficiency. using the upper-bound approach, compute the line efficiency and production rate of the new buffer installed transfer line.

Adouble-strand no. 60 roller chain is used to transmit power between a 13-tooth driving sprocket rotating at 300 rev/min and a 52-tooth driven sprocket. a) what is the allowable horsepower of this drive? b) estimate the center-to-center distance if the chain length is 82 pitches. c) estimate the torque and bending force on the driving shaft by the chain if the actual horsepower transmitted is 30 percent less than the corrected (allowable) power.
