Defensible standard times from workstation video

Conduct a direct time study from shop-floor recording. Receive an ASME-classified operation chart with LH/RH breakdown, performance rating, PF&D allowances, and documented method improvements — in minutes, not hours.

Methodology

From work recording to standard time

A single-cycle direct study — suitable for method documentation and baseline standard time. The engine automatically detects operators, equipment, and robots in frame and selects the appropriate study type. Validate with repeated observations before locking into production routings.

  1. 1

    Record the work cycle

    Capture one complete workstation cycle. MP4, MOV, or WebM — steady framing, full operator and work zone visible.

  2. 2

    Develop the operation chart

    Elements are timed and classified to ASME symbols with left-hand/right-hand descriptions and VA/NVA categorization.

  3. 3

    Establish standard time

    Review observed time, performance rating, PF&D allowances, and standard minutes. Export for routing and kaizen.
