I think the question is quite misleading, it does not give you clearly the data you need to calculate the Takt time and gives some useless information instead. To calculate the Takt all you need is the customer demand and the available time to meet the demand, the number of people involved is completely irrelevant.Now, assuming that the data is correct, we could maybe suppose that the demand is 100 pieces in 6 hours. Also, lacking any other information, we could suppose that the available time for the production is 6 hours (a bit strange for the duration of a shift, but maybe the stuff is radioactive :) ) and also we need to suppose that there are no legal breaks or any other regular interruptions of work during the 6 hours.
With these assumptions the Takt will be (Total available time) / (Customer need) that is 6*60 minutes /100 pieces or 3.6 minutes/piece. You need to release one finished piece every 3.6 minutes to meet the customer need.Given the formulation of the question this is kind of speculative – we have no idea where the requirement to finish 100 pieces in 6 hours comes from. It could, for instance, be simply the tradition in the unit, or a union requirement, in which cases the number I calculated would have nothing to do with the Takt time. Regards
