Consider the processes given in Example 3.3. Determine the number of batches that can be produced in a month (500 h) using a series of single product campaigns when the required number of batches for product A is twice that of either product B or product C.
TABLE E3.3: Equipment times needed to produce A, B, and C
Using Equation (3.6) with tcycle,A = 2.5, tcycle,B = 4.5, and tcycle,C = 4.5
If x is the number of batches of Products B and C, then 2x is the number of
batches of Product A
Number of batches for each product are A = 70, B = 35, C = 35
