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)

Expected values


(Pert)

1/3(2m+.5(a+b))

Variance


(Pert)

((1/6)(b-a))^2

Latest start


(Pert)

Latest finish-duration

Earliest finish


(Pert)

earliest start+duration

Total float


(Pert)

latest start-earliest start
