A Study on the Relationship between Cycle Time and Balance Delay

조립생산에 있어서 주기시간과 라인평형 지연관계에 관한 연구

Most line balancing technique widely used in manufacturing industry is done by balancing to a cycle or operator, time determined to provide the exact number of required units per day. No thought is given to benefit foregone by making slight changes to cycle time to achieve better distribution of the work among operators. This study provides a method to minimize balance delay by the choice of cycle time.
