Production Requirement for a Product
The weekly production requirement for a product is 1000 units.
Cycle Time for Producing a Product
The cycle time of producing one product on a machine is 10 minutes.
Factory Shifts
The factory works on 2 shifts, which means that there are two work shifts in a day. Each work shift is 8 hours long.
Calculating Production
To calculate the production requirements for the week, we need to use the following formula:
Production per week = (Production per day) x (Number of working days)
Production per day = (Number of hours in a day) / (Cycle time in minutes) x (Number of machines)
Calculating Production per Day
Production per day = (16 hours) / (10 minutes) x (1 machine) = 96 units
Calculating Production per Week
Production per week = (96 units) x (5 days) x (2 shifts) = 960 units
Conclusion
The factory needs to produce 960 units per week to meet the production requirement of 1000 units. This can be achieved by running two shifts per day, with one machine running continuously throughout the shift.
