THE ARRIVAL OF RAW MATERIAL TO THE PACKAGING OF THE FINISHED
PRODUCT.

TRANSPORTATION (EITHER AN ARROW OR A SMALL CIRCLE)
ACTION (E.G., GRASP, POSITION, USE, RELEASE)
A SKETCH OF THE WORKPLACE IS DRAWN, INDICATING THE CONTENTS
OF THE BINS AND THE LOCATION OF TOOLS AND MATERIALS.
RECORD THE MOTIONS OF ONE HAND AT A TIME
USUALLY NECESSARY TO REDRAW THE CHART
MULTIPLE ACTIVITY CHARTS

ALSO KNOWN AS GANG PROCESS CHARTS


USED WHEN SEVERAL WORKERS OPERATE A SINGLE MACHINE OR
RENDER A SINGLE SERVICE
USED WHEN A SINGLE WORKER IS OPERATING SEVERAL MACHINES
USED TO SHOW THE EXACT RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN IDLE AND
OPERATING TIMES OF BOTH WORKERS AND MACHINES
AN OPERATION PERFORMED BY ONE MEMBER OF THE GROUP MAY
