One company uses 6 trucks of haul manganese ore from kolar to its industry. There are two loaders, to load each truck. After loading, a truck moves to the weighing scale to be weighted. The queue discipline is FIFO. When it is weighed, a truck travels to the industry and returns to the loader queue. The distribution of loading time, weighing time and travel time are as follows:
Depict the simulation table and estimate the loader and scale utilization. Assume 5 trucks are at the loaders and one is at the scale, at time'0'. Stopping time TE=76 min.
