PMTS

What is the fundamental concept of PMTS?

• Jobs can be broken down into basic motion elements with standard times.

• Jobs must always be timed using a stopwatch.

• Tasks cannot be subdivided due to dependency of motions.

• PMTS is only applicable to robotic operations.

What unit is used in MTM to measure time?

• Seconds

• Minutes

• TMU (Time Measurement Unit)

• Frames

What is the value of 1 TMU in seconds?

• 1 second

• 0.001 second

• 0.01 second

• 0.036 second

Which of the following is NOT a motion element in MTM?

• Reach

• Sit

• Grasp

• Release

What does MTM-2 primarily combine?

• Move and Turn

• Reach and Move

• Reach and Grasp

• Disengage and Release

What is the main focus of MOST?

• Movement of objects

• Body postures

• Eye tracking

• Task delay observation

In Basic MOST, what does the parameter "P" stand for?

• Pick

• Push

• Position

• Placement

How is the total time computed in Basic MOST?

• Sum of parameter indices × 10 = TMUs

• Time measured with stopwatch × efficiency factor

• Subtract idle time from total time

• Sum of all motions divided by number of tasks

Which of the following is NOT an advantage of PMTS?

• Less reliance on stopwatch timing

• Better for very short cycles

• Reduces subjective rating error

• Measures real-time task delays directly

What generation does MTM-1 belong to?

• First generation

• Second generation

• Third generation

• Pre-modern
