A0 = No Action

B10 = Standing in front of his milling machine

G10 = grasp the waist level feed level on the machine
M3 = rotates the level one crank to engage the feed
X139 = 50 sec x 2.78 = 139
I 0 = No aligment
A0 = no actions

Total index = 0+10+10+3+139+0+0 =162

Normal Time = 10 x 162 = 1620 sec = 27 minutes
A3 = A worker takes 2 steps
B10 = grasp the waist level feed lever on the lathe
G3 = in stand position
M3= pull up the level approximately 15 cm
X70= process time 25 sec = 25sec x 2.78 = 69.5 = 70 sec
I 1 = aligns the level with one specific speed
A10= return the original workstation with 5 steps

Total index = 3+10+3+3=70+1+10 = 100

Normal Time = 10 x Total index
= 1000 sec. = 16.67 minutes
TUTORIAL MTM-1

1. An assembly works standing at a workbench perform a MOVE. The object being

moved weight 10 Ib. It is moved to an exact location a distance of 20 in. Determine
the MTM1 symbol and normal time in TMU for this motion element.

2. A worker seated at the tabel performs a REACH. The sought after is jumbled with
other objects in a tote pan, and the distances of the reach is 18in. Determine the
MTM 1 symbol and normal time in TMU for this motion elements.

3. A mechanic performs two POSITION element in sequences. The first requires an

alignment along longitudinal axes of the object and the second required an
orientation of their rotational axes. Both element can be classified as close fits
with no symmetry , and the objects are easy to handles.
i) Determine the MTM-1 symbols and normal time in TMU for these motion
element
ii) What is the total time for both element in seconds?

4. What is the MTM1 normal time that should be allowed an operator who must
read an instruction set before proceeding to perform a processing task, in which
the instruction document contains 150 word? How many second is this?

5. For safety reasons, a worker’s eye travel time in a certain operation must be
separated form the manual element that follow. The distance the worker’s eye
must travel is 20in. The perpendicular distance from her syes to the line of travel is
12 ft. No refocus is required. What is the MTM-1 normal time in TMU that should
be allowed for the eye travel elements.

MOST

1. Develop the activity sequences model and determine the normal time for the
following activity. An assembly workers obtain 4 bolts in one hand from a bin
located 10 in away on his worktable and puts one bolts each into four holes in the
basket with easy reach in front of him.

2. Develop the activity sequences model and determine the normal time for the
following activity.A material handling worker grasp a carton weighting 20Ib on a
counter and slide it along the countertop a distance of 2ft.

3. Develop the activity sequences model and determine the normal time for the
following activity.an assembly worker on a production line obtain an Allen key
within reach positions it 15 cm onto a bolt head, crank it 7 time to seat the bolt,
and then set the key aside.
