The Pur ue Pegboard Task is a standard test for motor skills. It consists of a board with a series of holes and three types of pieces: DIA 0.50" PIN 2.00" DIA 0.60" -DIA 1.00" STANDOFF 0.60" DIA 0.60" DIA 1.00" WASHER 0.25 FIGURE 1 PARTS OF THE ASSEMBLY As shown in the figure, the pieces are stored in a depression at the top of the board. The assembly, with the board rotated perpendicular to the operator's torso, is as follows; a. Right hand picks a pin and inserts it into a hole with a tight clearance. b. As the pin is inserted, the left hand picks up a washer and mounts it on the pin (0.10 inch clearance). c. As the washer is mounted, the right hand picks up a standoff and mounts it on the pin on top of the washer (0.10 inch clearance). d. As the standoff is mounted, the left hand picks up another washer and mounts it on the pin on top of the standoff (0.10 inch clearance). e. As the washer is mounted, the right hand picks up another pin and starts a new assembly in the next hole down. The hands keep alternating in picking up pieces and completing assemblies. WASHER 12.00" 3.20" STANDOFF PIN DIA 0.51" 2.00 PEGBOARD FIGURE 2 THE PUR UE PEGBOARD WASHER 12.00" STANDOFF 3.20" PIN DIA 0.51" 2.00" PEGBOARD FIGURE 2 THE PUR UE PEGBOARD ANSWER THE FOLLOWING: 1. Where is the operator located in the diagram (please choose one of the numbers in the figure)?|| 2. Construct a MTM Methods Analysis on one (1) assembly only. How much time (in seconds) will it take to finish one assembly? 3. How much time (in seconds) will an operator finishes eight (8) assemblies? NOTE: you don't need to provide an MTM output in the paper but provide a computed solution for this answer. 4.
