Crew Size
Industrial Engineering
Crew Size
Number of operators assigned to perform a defined process or set of tasks.
Examples
- 01For the new assembly cell, the engineer calculates a crew size of 4 operators at a takt time of 60 seconds.
- 02When demand drops by 25 %, the team checks whether a crew size of 3 can still meet takt with the existing standard work.
- 03Because the new cell with a crew size of 4 makes the same output as the old line with 6 operators, output per person rises by 50 %.
