(3) Assume data wherever required.
(4) Figures to the right indicate full marks.

Any four

1(i) Explain any four
Classification plant layout techniques.
(5 marks)
1(ii) Type I and Type II error(5 marks) 1(iii) Ergonomics(5 marks) 1(iv) Why does a capable manufacturing process give defects?(5 marks) 1(v) Therbligs and its uses(5 marks) 1(vi) Waste management(5 marks) 2(a) The following data refers to the study conducted for an operation.Table shows actual times for element in minutes

 Elements Cycle (Minutes) 1 2 3 4 1 2.5 2.1 5.3 2.6 2 5.5 5.6 5.3 5.7 3 2.3 2.0 2.1 2.2 4 2.1 2.1 2.5 2.5

Element 2 is machine element ,br>Consider the observation as abnormal and delete the same if they are more than 20% of average time of the element.
Take performance rating as 120
Assume following allowance:
Personal allowance=30minutes in a shift of 8 hours
Fatigue allowance=15%
Estimate the standard time of operation,normal time and work content.(10 marks) 2(b) Discuss in detail why work study valuable for production management.(15 marks) 3(a) A component s finished by a machining process.The size specified is 14.42± 0.42.sample were taken to study process capability.The detail are as follows;
No.of samples=25
\Sigma \sqrt{X} =360.40
&sigma R=8.82
Sample size=5
For sample size n=5,A2=0.58.D3=0,D04=2.11 and d2=2.326 if the process in statical control;
