Industrial and Manufacturing Engineer here, just wanted to say this was explained perfectly! Great content

[@alexyoung2471]

Much more helpful than the lecture at my school. Thanks!

[@amal2423]

Thank you sir, You explained it in a better way than my teacher :)

[@gracetso8239]

thank you for this video, super helpful before my exam tomorrow!

[@rgsoni]

You are welcome

[@daberechi2688]

funny enough, am in a similar pickle today.

[@angeleaf1]

And mine in another 2 days haha! :)

[@THEKKODAN]

Go

[@MadeInJack]

Super helpful too for my exam in 1 hour :P Thanks !

[@satyajitgupta7477]

Thank you...for providing Conceptual clarity video on this topic.

[@mohammadmohiuddin8684]

Very well explanation on line balancing method of mathematical problems.

[@knowledgecentre2907]

sir, your presentation is appreciable.

[@ifalpacas6668]

Good job! Your short lecture is just so much better than my professor’s 100-min nonsense! Really helps

[@temich1985]

Thank you! It was great help for Industrial Engineering homework

[@briansale573]

Thank you very much! Great example!

[@mustakrazick4242]

thank you sir for the great explanation.

[@vvighnesh1569]

You are a life savior!

[@aayushdamani6289]

Awesome explained!!!

[@daberechi2688]

Thanks for this video Sir. You're the best!

[@rgsoni]

Thanks.

[@harshitamanwani7828]

Thank you soo much for this video. Much helpful!

[@eslinetegbey]

Great help. Thank you

[@ehansarajapaksha1696]

Thanks a lot 😇

[@durden_luciano]

Thank you, this video was really helpful

[@thelaktionov4329]

best video in whole youtube. please do more!

[@rgsoni]

Thanks a lot.

[@tiffanyxuan2248]

Thanks a lot! that's much clearer than my professor did...... lol

[@kesaragimhana7933]

thank you sir, this is very helpful.

[@HannahTunnell]

Very helpful! Thank you!

[@jacobyako]

brilliant! The time left and the station remaining time not allowing a new task means to make a new station. Thats what i missed.

[@garrettthackoorie6904]

Thanks so much - very helpful!

[@jestonienguho3531]

BSBA here

[@melisap8531]

Thank you it was very helpful

[@saidagenczs]

Thanks a lot, it was very helpful

[@debottambhowmik5102]

Well explained....liked it

[@oreo507]

Great video!

[@Sandhi-M]

It really help! Thanks sir.

[@arshedsathar8639]

Kiduvee

[@devadattamishra8958]

superb

[@chryssatk4011]

Saved my life

[@deepuvinil4565]

A huge thanks ❤️

[@Notsupreme49327]

If Task time shows more than cycle time, what would be the solution? May I know, please?

[@rgsoni]

Very good question. Let us say C=10 and a task takes 14 seconds. In that case, you will have to create two parallel stations with double cycle time of 20 seconds. Each of those parallel stations will do exactly the same thing and produce two units in 20 seconds (or effectively, produce a unit every 10 seconds on an average) and will keep the assembly line humming.

[@Arkemnight5718]

How do I optimise the line layout in case of two parallel lines of identical processes in a particular cell?

[@AbuahmadAbuahmad-vs6fp]

many thanks for your efforts.

[@rgsoni]

You are welcome.

[@himanshuchikane3368]

Please do for largest following task also!!

[@trinarauth1590]

Best

[@Smeusha]

Canada loves you

[@isurugayan910]

Super

[@prachiwankhade9752]

Thank you sir

[@rgsoni]

You are welcome.

[@moemenmadbouly4761]

really good

[@minolibatepola5797]

Thank you very much. Do you have the "Number of followers method" ?

[@nursunny139]

Ooooohhhh life saving before exm .....

[@mechadda3594]

Thanks sir.....

[@neverbackdown9540]

Thank you sir.

[@rgsoni]

You are welcome.

[@sachinu1986]

Hi ramesh...What is the procedure to solve line balancing problem using least number of predecessor rule

[@muaz2242]

Thx, very helpful

[@rgsoni]

You are welcome.

[@ladej7739]

what if the demand is one unit in 8hrs, what would the cycle time be??

[@prasannahonnavar8994]

How to calculate idle time from this example?

[@punamdeshmukh5600]

Thanks

[@ng5437]

thank youuuuuu

[@ivanmaximilianoyrupaillahu3306]

who determine the output units x day ? Is the The company owner , the client ??

[@rgsoni]

It is driven by the projected demand.

[@ladej7739]

and the theoretical number of stations???

[@syedmuhammadzohaibnaqvi3147]

Efficiency is missing

[@alexyoung2471]

Why couldn't station 1 include both A & D?

[@virahetti8683]

B needed

[@pranavindi9786]

takt time and cycle time are different ? Right ?

[@rgsoni]

Technically, yes. But are often used interchangeably if your system is working ideally. Takt time is desired and Cycle time is real/actuality (may be different than takt time slightly).

[@Lostsoulz9]

you confused the shit out of me on that example

[@shashanknair8900]

you could have take d for station 1

[@rgsoni]

The precedence rule cannot be broken. The task should be ready for allocation.

[@drkungchan]

Hi sir, please help me balance for this lesson : Target/day : 4,500 pcs (8hrs). And only have 4 tasks such as : A(18sec)--->B(22sec)--->C(12sec)--->D(9sec). Thank you

[@shakthimech]

28800/4500=6.4 sec ( takt time) 61/6.4=9.5~10 stn required I assume the task A=18Sec,B=22 sec ,C=12 sec & D =9 sec can not be broke down. In this case to meet the demand 4500, A=18/6.4 ~ 3 operator required B= 22/6.4~ 4 op req C= 18/6.4 ~3 op rq D= 9/6.4~ 2 op rq So totally 12 op required...

[@rizzaannenogales9675]

I dont get this..

[@navjotsinghseehra7150]

video was good, but whats with the fake ascent.....

[@rgsoni]

??? What does that mean? I am teaching at a US university for decades.

[@user-tv5fk3gn8j]

!!!!!!!!!!!!! proute caca proute

[@Amayra2021]

Sorry to say but it is Wrong balancing.....you have to precedence diagram

[@faizzeyakhanofficial]

Everything is good but your pronunciation should be little bit clear.

[@rgsoni]

Thanks for the feedback. I will try harder.

[@theyjustwantyourmoney4539]

Bend the rules ??😏

[@rgsoni]

If a task is ready for allocation and even if it is NOT the most eligible "ready" tasks, you can allocate it for higher efficiency. Example: Suppose you have 20 seconds available at a particular work station and two tasks are ready for allocation requiring 19 seconds and 50 seconds respectively. Obviously, task taking 50 seconds should be allocated first (assuming longest operation time heuristic). However, it will not fit in that station as it has only 20 seconds remaining. However, the task taking 19 second will fit...so, bend the rule and allocate that task. Hope this helps.

abey kya banaya hai ye lag raha hai jaise so jayega

[@theindichorizon9563]

Try speaking without accent. Natural is better !

[@rgsoni]

??...Did you read the description...the video is for my students in Western Pennsylvania, where I have been teaching for the last 30+ years.

[@palaashkutarmare1142]

Fake accent

[@tyagijiakshay]

ap ko nahi lgta hindi mai hota to zaada acha hota

[@rgsoni]

Really...I made this video for my students in the USA. Hmm, not sure if they understand Hindi...🙂

[@tyagijiakshay]

@@rgsoni ohh so sorry Mujhe indian Channel pr jana chiya tha

[@prashanttewari96]

Don't pretend accent

[@rgsoni]

I wish you would read the description. "This video has been prepared to assist my students at Indiana University of Pennsylvania (IUP), located in Western Pennsylvania near Pittsburgh (USA)."
