Four different parts go through two processes before being packaged in groups of 16 pieces per pallet and then sent to the shipping area. The data for each part is given below. The parts arrive on a conveyor at the machining area. Parts A and B are sent through the same two machines, while Parts C and D are sent through two different machines. Two robots are used in this area to move the parts from the conveyor to the processors and from one processor to another. They are then transported to the packaging area on a conveyor where another two robots are used to move the parts from the conveyor to the appropriate combiner. A fork truck is used to move the pallets to the combiners and the completed pallets from the combiners to the shipping area. Assume an unlimited supply of pallets. Assume all parts initially arrive at time 0. Determine how many parts are completed after 14 days of running 3 shifts per day at 8 hours per shift. You do not need to track the individual parts completed. Simply the number of completed pallets is acceptable. There is no need to include break time. Please include a screen shot of your final simulation as well as your simulation file.
