Productivity

person, tools, task, method, organization, environment

Work content

amount of work contained in a product or process in hrs

Factors under worker control

absence, tardiness, careless workmanship, accidents

Methods engineering process

select project, gather information, analyze information, develop ideal method, present ideal and install method, job analysis, establish time standards, follow up

Pareto analysis

where to focus attention and efforts, identify what causes the most quality problems

Fish diagram

cause and effect diagrams, use critical analysis to determine probable contributions

Gantt chart

protect or process planning showing protected time and progress, determines management and decisions for employees

Pert chart

program evaluation technique, network analysis techniques

Pert chart steps

define project and all its significant activities or tasks, develop relationship among activities/order of tasks, draw network connecting activities, assign time and or cast estimates, compute longest time path through network, use network to help control project

Rate of production

how often a product comes off the line

Efficiency

total standard time over total allowed time

# of operators

standard time/rate of production

Work element sharing

operators with idle time share work of another station

Operator process chart

motion study tool, shows division of work between operators hands

Operation analysis

question everything, justify eliminate or improve, determine amount of effort that will go into analysis

Approaches

purpose of operation, part design, tolerance and specs, materials manufacturing, set up and tools, materials handling, plant layout, work design

Purpose of operation

try to eliminate, combine, or improve operations

Part design

obligations to production can change, fewer parts, tighter tolerances, change in materials

Tolerances and specifications

what is appropriate for quality, inspection methods

Materials

less expensive, easier to process, standardize materials

Manufacturing sequence and process

rearrange operations, mechanize manual operations, utilize more effective facilities, robots

Set up and tools

reduce set up time through planning , methods production control

Materials handling

movement of materials to and from productive process in warehouses and storage to shipping and receiving areas

Variance

(1/6(longest time-shortest time))^2

Expected values

1/3(2*middle time+.5(shortest+longest))

Standard deviation

Add variances on critical path and square root

Earliest start

by forward pass

Latest finish

by backward pass

Earliest finish

earliest start+duration

Latest start

latest finish-duration

Total float

latest start-earliest start

Plant layout

develop production system that permits manufacture of desired quantity of units for the least cost

Product layout

arrangement based on sequence of operations

Process layout

consist of a functional grouping of equipment or activities that do similar work

Cellular layout

design consists of self contained groups of equipment needed for producing a certain set of goods, classifies parts into familiers

Work design

focus on the human element in the design of work

Principles of work design

consideration of human capabilities for the ideal work method

Motion economy

design tasks to optimize human strength capability, using worker momentum to assist

1st class motion

fingers in motion

2nd class motion

finger and wrist motion

3rd class motion

forearm motion

4th class motion

shoulder motion (most common)

5th class motion

legs or trunk motion (least efficient, most powerful)

Motion study

analysis of operators body motions during work cycles
