63 predetermined motion-time system
Gen Mgta work measurement technique that uses a set of established times for basic human motions to build up standard times for jobs and processes at a specific level of performance. The predetermined motiontime system is based on the idea, first conceived by Frederick Winslow Taylor and later developed by Frank and Lillian Gilbreth, that the same length of time is required for basic human motions in whatever context they are performed. These standard times are established using time study techniques and can then be combined to provide a standard time for specific work tasks. The first PMTS, called motion time analysis, was developed in 1927, and others appeared in the United States during the 1930s. Interest in the use of PMTS increased during and after World War II. The most widely used system is methods-time measurement.Abbr. PMTSThe ultimate business dictionary > predetermined motion-time system

66 methods-time measurement
Gen Mgta system of standard times for movements made by people in the performance of work tasks. Methods-time measurement was developed in the 1940s and is the most widely used of predetermined motion-time systems of work measurement designed to increase efficiency and consistency in work operations. Work operations are broken down into a set of basic motions such as reach, grasp, position, and release and standard times for each motion are calculated by analyzing films of industrial operations. Simplified versions of the system called MTM2 and MTM3, approved in 1965 and 1970 respectively, use combinations of the basic motions, such as get and put.Abbr. MTM -
