How to reduce manufacturing costs in those processes with preponderant use of manpower, reducing and simplifying –following the definition of the operative method- the necessary motions to carry out the work and assigning them correct and required predetermined execution times. Less laborious and costly than MTM-1.

The main purpose of MTM is to optimize working methods. The most accurate and best-performing tool is the MTM-1; but sometimes its use is not advisable for reasons of profitability or because it does not require so much precision (launch of new products, need of fast results, etc.).

In these cases, if it is deemed necessary to continue to have the bimanual movement analysis, the appropriate tool, due to its speed of use and the sufficient quality of its results, is the MTM-2.

Goal:

• Highlight the advantages and disadvantages of this block system of predetermined times with respect to the basic MTM, MTM-1, and conventional time studies.
• Explain the limits of use of the MTM-2 system.
• Explain the method of analysis and the advantages that its use can bring to the work study and industrial organization.
• Train attendees for the correct application of the MTM-2 system.

All MTM courses are taught by Official Instructors and the exams are also official, granting an official title endorsed by the One-MTM, the international MTM organization.

The training material of the courses is provided in digital format or can be sent -on paper- in advance if requested.
