Question

Cycle times in worker-machine systems divide into two categories: machine time depends on operator and machine time is constant and repetitive. Give an example of each type of system and discuss its features. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? What are some if the common issues one might expect to face with each system? What are the potential consequences of a mismatch (i.e. an operator-centric system is designed w hen an autonomous-machine system is more appropriate and vice versa)? What might be some of the signs of a mismatch when you're doing an analysis? Who would be best to talk to in order to get the information you need?

Explanation / Answer

Answer:

Cycle times in worker-machine systems divide into two categories:

(1) machine time depends on operator and

Example:

an example for the above category is a truck driver driving a tractor-trailer.

(2) machine time is constant and repetitive. Give an example of each category.

an example for the above category is a production operation in which the machine operates on semi-automatic cycle.
