  2. Example of Line Balancing:Step 2: Determine Cycle Time Question: Suppose we only have demand for 3 units per hour. What would our cycle time have to be? Answer: Therefore, the maximum task time allowed in a single station is 20 minutes

  3. Example of Line Balancing:Step 3: Determine Theoretical Minimum Number of Workstations Question: What is the theoretical minimum number of workstations for this problem? Answer:

  4. Example of Line Balancing:Step 4: Rules To Follow for Loading Workstations • A number of simple rules have been proposed for assigning tasks to work stations. • Assign Tasks With The Most Following Tasks First • Assign Tasks With the Longest Task Time First • For this example, we’ll use • Primary: Assign tasks in order of the longest operating time • Secondary (tie-breaking):Assign tasks in order of the largest number of following tasks.
