Alex,

A couple of questions that didn't get answered yet.

1. What were the constraints given by the Prof.?

2. If there weren't any significant constraints, why the large size? Industry has a premium on floor space. The less taken, the better.

3. Why were all of the actions being done one at a time? Significant speed could have been found if the next container was being loaded, as the previous one was being lifted up. Also, all of the items being dispensed could have been done simultaneously. Industry values timing due to the delays and/or inventory that it causes upstream.
