Number of cycles (time study) |
n=[ts/kx]^2 |
|
Need for performance rating |
to determine the quality of work being observed for operator |
|
Westinghouse performance rating system |
skill, effort, conditions, consistency |
|
Foreign elements |
not part of operation or elements |
|
Three allowance types |
personal basic fatigue variable |
|
Personal allowance |
Restroom and water breaks, affected by environmental conditions (heat, cold), 5% is typical |
|
Basic fatigue |
accounts for variability in work pace, 4% is typical |
|
Variable fatigue |
less than optimal work conditions stress a worker physiologically, psychologically, or both ways |
|
Continuous watch method |
continues, time still increments |
|
Snapback watch method |
resets to zero each press |
|
Determining allowances |
know how much allowance to give workers based on conditions, severity of labor, and for unexpected events |
|
Time study vs motion study |
a time study observes workers to determine productivity and time standards a motion study uses a video camera to analyse the motion and posture of an operator during work |
|
Determine time standards |
work content time*performance rating*allowance |
|
Learning curves |
learning curves quantify decrease in task performance time, as function of task repetition |
|
Calculating learning curves |
Y_X = KX^n |
|
Advantages of predetermined time systems |
eliminate need for performance rating estimate production capacity develop effective methods prior to production |
|
Predetermined time system |
standard data systems for determining standard times for basic elements of work |
|
General move sequence |
unrestricted movement of objects through air ABG ABP A |
|
Controlled move sequence |
objects movement path is defined or restricted ABG MXI A |
|
Tool use sequence |
for use with hand tools, hands as tools, or brain as tool ABG ABP .. ABP A |
|
# of operators (Line balancing) |
standard time/R |
|
Calculating R and J (Line balancing) |
R=min/unit J=unit/min |
|
True # of operators (Line balancing) |
round the exact # of operators up 1 regardless of decimal |
|
Effective standard time (Line balancing) |
standard time/true # of operators |
|
Efficiency (Line balancing) |
Total standard time/Actual time (largest st multiplied by # of workers) |
|

|
Earliest finish (Pert) |
earliest start+duration |
|
Total float (Pert) |
latest start-earliest start |
