{"Image DocumentName": "NUMBER OF MODELS PRODUCED", "Image ImageDescription": "A mixed-model line produces several items belonging to the same family. A single-model line produces one model with no variations. Mixed model production enables a plant to achieve both high-volume production and product variety. CYCLE TIMES. A line\u2019s cycle time depends on the desired output rate (or sometimes on the maximum number of workstations allowed). In turn, the maximum line efficiency varies considerably with the cycle time selected. Thus, exploring a range of cycle times makes sense. Advantages. 1. The flow of product will be smooth and logical in flow lines. 2. In-process inventory is less. 3. Throughput time is less. 4.
