number of layers. But, the set up time is quite significant. It takes 1.5 minutes to roll out a layer of cloth and so for 60 layers; it takes 90 minutes setup time. The machine is being operated by 4 operators and the company is using its maximum capacity, i.e. 60 layers and 8 patterns at a time. So, Total number of shirts cut in one run = 60*8 = 480 Total time taken by one run = setup time + runtime = 90 + 30 = 120 minutes Regular shirts labor content (minutes per shirt) for cutting = 120
