Motion Study

 Frank & Lillian Gilbreth  Find one “best way” to do task  Divide task into therbligs  search, select, grasp, hold  Use videotape to study motions

2000 by Prentice-Hall, Inc

General Guidelines For Motion Study

 Efficient Use Of Human Body  Work - simplified, rhythmic & symmetric  Hand/arm motions - coordinated & simultaneous  Employ full extent of physical capabilities  Conserve energy - use machines, minimize distances, use momentum  Tasks - simple, minimal eye contact & muscular effort, no unnecessary motions, delays or idleness

2000 by Prentice-Hall, Inc

 Efficient Arrangement Of Workplace  Tools, material, equipment - designated, easily accessible location  Seating & work area - comfortable & healthy  Efficient Use Of Equipment  Equipment & mechanized tools enhance worker abilities  Use foot-operated equipment to relieve hand/arm stress  Construct & arrange equipment to fit worker use

Stopwatch Time Study Basic Steps

1. Establish the standard job method 2. Break down the job into elements 3. Study the job 4. Rate the worker’s performance (RF) 5. Compute the average time ( t )

2000 by Prentice-Hall, Inc

6. Compute the normal time Normal Time = (Elemental average) (rating factor) Nt = ( t )(RF) Normal Cycle Time = NT =  Nt 7. Compute the standard time Standard Time = (normal cycle time) (1 + allowance factor) ST = (NT) (1 + AF)

Incentive Piece-Rate Example

 Piece-rate is $0.04 per sandwich  What would average worker earn per hour?

60 min min/ sandwich  or 135 sandwiches  Wage rate = (135)(0.04) = $5.40

Work Sampling

 A technique for determining the proportion of time a worker or machine spend on various activities  Involves brief, random observations  Useful for non-repetitive tasks  E.g., secretary, nurse, police officer 2000 by Prentice-Hall, Inc 23

Work Sampling - Basic Steps

1. Define the job activities 2. Determine number of observations desired n z e   2 p  1  p  where n = sample size z  z value for desired confidence level e = degree of error from true mean p = proportion of time spent on activity prior to study

3. Determine length of sampling period 4. Conduct work sampling study, record observations 5. Periodically re-compute number of observations

Units produced 2000 by Prentice-Hall, Inc

Learning Curve

 Processing time decreases with worker learning (experience)  Time per unit decreases by constant percentage each time output doubles  Useful for nonrepetitive, complex jobs requiring requiring long time to complete

More On Learning Curves

 Not effective for mass production jobs  Little relative improvement, in a brief time span  Product modifications negate effects  Productivity improvement can derive from sources besides learning – such as?

Computing Time For Nth Unit

t n = t 1 n b where     t n = time required for nth unit t 1 = time required for first unit n = cumulative number of units produced b = ln r/ln 2, where r is the percentage rate of improvement
