Workflow
- Calculate Takt Time - Determine customer demand rate
- Observe Work - Conduct time studies of current methods
- Break Down Elements - Identify individual work elements
- Sequence Work - Determine optimal work sequence
- Document Standards - Create combination sheets and instructions
- Train and Verify - Ensure operators follow standards
Standard Work Documents
| Document | Purpose | |----------|---------| | Standard Work Combination Sheet | Shows relationship between manual work, machine time, and walking | | Standard Work Layout | Depicts physical movement and sequence | | Job Element Sheet | Detailed breakdown of each work element | | Visual Work Instruction | Step-by-step guidance with images |
Takt Time Formula
Takt Time = Available Production Time / Customer Demand
Example:
- Available time: 8 hours = 28,800 seconds
- Customer demand: 480 units/day
- Takt time: 28,800 / 480 = 60 seconds
