Assignment:
Solve Problem below except that the ratio of single command to dual command cycles is 3:1 instead of 1:1.
Problem : The length of the storage aisle in an AS/RS = 240 ft and its height = 60 ft. Suppose horizontal and vertical speeds of the S/R machine are 300 ft/min and 60 ft/min, respectively. The S/R machine requires 18 sec to accomplish a pick-and-deposit operation. Find: (a) the single command and dual command cycle times per aisle and (b) throughput for the aisle under the assumptions that storage system utilization = 85% and the numbers of single command and dual command cycles arc equal.
Provide complete and step by step solution for the question and show calculations and use formulas.
