There are a total of 10 test stations. When a circuit board fails, the test station will automatically record the lifetime for the failed board and then immediately switch to a replacement board. The test was stopped at 1200 hours. At that time, 19 circuit boards had failed and there was an operating circuit board in every station. Assuming the boards have exponentially-distributed lifetimes, estimate the mean lifetime for this type of board.

An FMS consists of three stations plus a load/unload station. Station 1 loads and unloads parts using two servers (material handling workers). Station 2 performs horizontal milling operations with two servers (identical CNC horizontal milling machines). Station 3 performs vertical milling operations with three servers (identical CNC vertical milling machines). Station 4 performs drilling operations with two servers (identical drill presses). The machines are connected by a part handling system that has two work carriers and a mean transport time...

A car wash has two stations, 1 and 2. The service time at station 1 is exponentially distributed with parameter λ1, and the service time at station 2 is exponentially distributed with parameter λ2.When a car arrives at the car wash, it begins service at station 1, provided station 1 is free; otherwise, the car waits until station 1 is available. Upon completing service at station 1, the car then proceeds to station 2, provided station 2 is free; otherwise,...

(Please just show the design of the circuit) A printed circuit board manufacturing laboratory needs to have controlled environmental conditions, such as temperature, pressure, and humidity. These variables are measured by means of sensors that deliver an electrical signal which must be conditioned before being sent to a microcontroller for processing. The challenge is to perform signal conditioning with pressure sensor op amps with part number MPX4250. The conditions that this signal conditioning must meet are the following: Required work...

Consider a production line with five stations. Station 1 can produce a unit in 9 minutes. Station 2 can produce a unit in 10 minutes. Station 3 has two identical machines, each of which can process a unit in 12 minutes (each unit only needs to be processed on one of the two machines. Station 4 can produce a unit in 5 minutes. Station 5 can produce a unit in 8 minutes. Which station is the bottleneck station?
