3. The continuous timing method in direct time study was used to obtain the element times for a worker-machine task as indicated in the table below. Element c is a machine controlled element and the time is constant. Elements a, b, d, e, and f are operator-controlled and external to the machine cycle, and they were performance rated at 80%. If the machine allowance is 25%, and the worker PFD allowance is 15%, Determine (a) the normal time (b) the standard time for the cycle, and (c) the worker's efficiency if the worker completes 360 work units working 7.2 hr on an 8-hour shift. element b d e f .18 30 .88 1.12 Observed time 1.55 1.80 Normal Time Tn = T obs. (PR) Standard time T std. = Tn (1+ A pfd) Standard Time (work - machine) T std = T nw ( 1 +A pfd) + Tm (1 + Am) Confidence interval Pr (Te lies within x prom. z a/2 o/ raiz cuadrada n) = (1-a) Standard deviation S = (raiz cuadrada) (x - x prom.)^2 / n-1 Confidence interval size Pr (Te lies within x prom. Ita/2 s/ raiz cuadrada n) = (1-x) Interval size x prom. = kx. prom. Cycles n n= (t a/2 s/kx prom.) ^2 =
