Hello everyone,
I´m conducting a time study on a semi-automatical productive cell. The operator only tasks are quality control, non direct materials replacements and repairs. The activity don't follow any type of cicle or method, the order is at the operator's choice.
To understand the work load i've determined the average duration,frequency for each task (aprox. 20 Tasks) and the distance traveled when performing a specific task.
Now my problem, i can´t figure out how to determine an average distance covered between the different tasks (there about 9 diferent positions in the work place).
I ended up estimating a central point (geometrical point) and determine all the distances for each activity from that same point, but this situation causes a substancial inflation of the actual distance being covered by the operator...
Any suggestions?
