MICROMOTION STUDIES
Operations with very short cycles & repetitive
cycles need greater details to analyze it for
saving motions and effort( i.e. planning for
lesser fatigue). This goal can be achieved
through Micro-motion Studies.
MICRO means small. Thus here we study the
motions in terms of THERBLIGS.

CONTD.
Such a study involves the use of
FILM and VIDEO when
operator performs the job.

Exposure meter, Flood lights,
Reflectors, Tripod,, Projector etc.

MEMOMOTION ANALYSIS
It was introduced by MUNDEL.
It is a special type of micro-motion study in
which activities are FILMED AT MUCH SLOWER
SPEED (60 to 100 frames per minute) i.e. at
longer intervals than normal (intervals being
between 0.5 to 4 s).
Thus a general pattern of movements can be
obtained and avoidable motions can be
identified.

STEPS: Study the operation to be filmed ;
Prepare the film ; Analyze the film ;
Develop a better method.
ADVANTAGES: More economical (less film consumed) and
Long sequence of activities can be recorded;
APPLICATIONS:
Team-work studies ;
Material flow studies ( e.g. baggage
movement at the airports )
Long cycle job studies &
Study of artificial limbs motions etc

CYCLEGRAPH
It was introduced by Gilbreth.
It is a photographic record of the path of movement
of the operator doing a job.
Little source of light (bulb) is attached to the hand or
finger or any other body part, whose motions are to
be analyzed. When he/she performs the operation
and photograph is taken continuously, the path of
motions is recorded on the film as CONTINUOUS
STREAK OF LIGHT as shown below

CHRONOCYCLEGRAPH
It is a special type of cycle-graph in which the light source (bulb)
is suitably INTERRUPTED ELECTRICALLY so that the path of
motion in the photograph appears as a SERIES OF PEAR-SHAPED
SPOTS instead of continuous streak of light as shown below
