Solutions considered by Craft
• N! solutions to problem with N depts.
• Craft considers only
N(N-1) pairs of exchanges, 2 starting with each
dept.

Synopsis of assembly line balancing
1. Set up a precedence table.
2. Compute required cycle time:C = (production time) / (required output in units)
3. Compute minimum cycle time:CMIN = time for longest task
4. Compute minimum number of stations:SMIN = (sum of all times) / C
Facility Layout 10
Synopsis of assembly line balancing (cont.)5. Select rule by which tasks are assigned to work
stations.Examples:(1) select tasks with longest operation times first or(2) select tasks with largest number of following tasks first
6. Assign tasks to the first work station until the sum of the task times are equal to the cycle time, or no other tasks are feasible. Repeat for stations 2, 3, … until tasks are assigned.
7. Evaluate the efficiency of the balance:E = (sum of all times) / (actual nbr. of stations x C)
