Solution

Takt time is calculated by dividing the total available work time by the number of jobs that need to be processed.

Step 1: Calculate the total available work time The total work time is 460 minutes per day. However, we need to subtract the break times and lunch time.

There are two 12-minute breaks, so that's 2*12 = 24 minutes. Lunch time is 1 hour, which is 60 minutes.

So, the total break time is 24 minutes + 60 minutes = 84 minutes.

The total available work time is therefore 460 minutes - 84 minutes = 376 minutes.

Step 2: Calculate the takt time The service system must process 95 jobs a day.

So, the takt time is 376 minutes / 95 jobs = 3.96 minutes per job.

Therefore, the takt time for the service system is approximately 3.96 minutes per job, rounded to two decimal places.
