Methods Engineering
Systematic analysis and design of work methods to improve safety, quality, productivity and ergonomics.
Examples
- 01Methods engineering is applied to the hand packing of spare parts, analysing each step, tool and movement before a new layout is drawn.
- 02The new method from methods engineering is checked against safety rules, quality checks and ergonomic limits before it is trained.
- 03A before-and-after study shows that methods engineering cut packing time per order from 6 to 4.5 minutes without extra effort.
