Mixed Model Map
Line design is the process of defining a production line, the products that you make on the line, the operations that you perform to make these products, and the resources and materials consumed at each step. The mixed model map helps you to create and monitor your line design. To balance a line against a specified forecast, you will use the mixed model map which allows you to calculate the following at each process or line operation:
- Machine, labor, and total times
- machine, labor, and total weighted times
- machine and labor requirements
- In-process kanban (IPK) requirements
