Where can I get standard data for motion time study?

AI Thread Summary
Standard data for motion time studies can be crucial for planning in projects like plant layout. Specificity in the type of assembly being studied is important, as different industries have vastly different requirements. Resources for obtaining motion time study data include industry standards, academic journals, and specialized databases. It's essential to clarify the type of assembly process to find relevant data. Accurate motion time studies can significantly impact equipment, space, and personnel planning in manufacturing.

I'm working on a school project (Plant layout). In the project, I'm in the planning phase of a new product and I need to have some standard data for motion time study (i.e. assembling) to determine equipment, space and people needed in the plant. Where can I find such data?

I don't know where you can find it but I think your specification is so vague as to be meaningless. Do you think "assembly" of a car and or silicon wafers and of men's suits are all the same?
 

Thread 'Race car suspension Class'

Posted June 2024 - 15 years after starting this class. I have learned a whole lot. To get to the short course on making your stock car, late model, hobby stock E-mod handle, look at the index below. Read all posts on Roll Center, Jacking effect and Why does car drive straight to the wall when I gas it? Also read You really have two race cars. This will cover 90% of problems you have. Simply put, the car pushes going in and is loose coming out. You do not have enuff downforce on the right...

Thread 'Cantilever help'

I'm trying to decide what size and type of galvanized steel I need for 2 cantilever extensions. The cantilever is 5 ft. The space between the two cantilever arms is a 17 ft Gap the center 7 ft of the 17 ft Gap we'll need to Bear approximately 17,000 lb spread evenly from the front of the cantilever to the back of the cantilever over 5 ft. I will put support beams across these cantilever arms to support the load evenly

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

Thread 'What's the most likely cause for this carbon seal crack?'

We have a molded carbon graphite seal that is used in an inline axial piston, variable displacement hydraulic pump. One of our customers reported that, when using the “A” parts in the past, they only needed to replace them due to normal wear. However, after switching to our parts, the replacement cycle seems to be much shorter due to “broken” or “cracked” failures. This issue was identified after hydraulic fluid leakage was observed. According to their records, the same problem has occurred...
