solution

Consider an assembly line with two forming and casting machines that are placed in a series format. The boxes enter to the assembly line with an exponential distribution, an average of 6 minutes. The processing time at first machine (casting machine) follows a triangular distribution with minimum, maximum, and mode of 10, 15 and 12 respectively. The processing time for second machine (forming) follows a uniform distribution with lower bound and upper bound of 4 and 9 respectively. Neither of those machines requires setup time. The finished items finally will be collected at the end of the line. Simulate the assembly line explained above in FlexSim.
