Multiple Activity Chart

This document discusses a Multiple Activity Chart, which is similar to a Gantt chart but shows interactions between team members working interdependently. It examines repetitive group work to determine operator and machine utilization. The chart enables effective, high productivity group work design. Figure 54.4 provides an example chart with a 9 minute cycle time for a repetitive task. Further diagramming techniques are covered elsewhere, like network diagrams for line balancing and project scheduling.

Multiple Activity Chart

This chart is similar to a Gantt chart but is used to show the interactions and
interferences between the work of several working as a team and dependent on
each other. It examines short cycle repetitive work and determines the utilization
of operators and machines working in a group. It enables group work to be
designed that is effective and operates with high productivity. Figure 54.4 shows
a Multiple Activity Chart
Figure 54.4

In Figure 54.4 the cycle time for this repetitive task is 9 minutes.
Further diagramming techniques are used in other units in this website. Network
diagrams are used for line balancing in unit 58 and for project scheduling in units
73 and 74.
