Project Overview • Objectives • Measure current times for production operations. • Perform ergonomic and methods analysis for operations within production lines. • Set new time standards for all production lines. • Use simulation to analyze production line operations and suggest improvements.
Process Documentation and Methods Analysis • Documentation of current production line operations station by station. • Element Description • Raw Data Time Sheets • Summary of Time Sheets • Crew Size for Each Production Line
Example: Raw Data Time Sheets**Actual data values have been changed. Times are in 1/100 minutes.
