 Solid lines represent: productive time

 Breaks indicate: idle time

7. Gang Process Charts


7 - Gang Process Charts
 These are Worker and Machine Process charts
showing
 many workers
 workers are interacting with a piece of
equipment or a machine

 Purpose: determine if interaction between


workers is efficient and coordinated

 Examples:
 workers at a coal furnace
 workers in a steel mill

8 - Two-Handed Process Charts
 Left-hand / right-hand chart

 Operator process chart

 Flow process chart directed at an operator

 Each hand is documented separately

 Activities of worker’s hands (or limbs): recorded


in their relationship to one another

 Useful when doing work methods analysis
