Time study technique in a fast changing process
Time study technique in a fast changing process
(OP)
I am an Industrial Engineer assigned to perform time study. The problem I face is that the process as such takes overall time of less than 80 seconds, and there are 6 to 7 steps in the process. How do I go about this?
I need to find the pieces per hour to run the production schedule.
Thanks

Short duration steps can be timed as fast as you can tap the screen.

It has been a long time since I used this method so my memory fails me on the details. This is probably still used or at least something similar. Try doing a Google search for "MTM"
It is a sure fit for the study you describe.
Good Luck,

I got the name wrong -- MTM is Methods-Time Measurement not Motion Time Measurement.
