Correct/Complete Question:
What is the time of the slowest workstation in a production system?
A. utilization
B. bottleneck time
C. effective capacity
D. throughput time
Answer:
B, bottleneck time
Explanation:
A bottleneck in a production system refers to a constraint in the production system where supply takes the longest time to meet up with demand for a particular good.
In the production processes, bottleneck time is the time takencapacity of the ful in a certain process of production as a result of the limited capacity of the process, thereby reducing the entire production chain.
Simply put, a bottleneck is a delay in time of one of the production process thereby slowing down the entire production system.
