Abstract
For a repetitive production task, a comprehensive operator training method was developed through the use of MTM analysis, operator instruction sheet, demonstration, practice session, feedback and guidance. At the end of 72 minutes demonstration and practice session, all the operators were able to perform the assigned drilling task by employing the prescribed motions and came close to reaching the measured production standard. The average quantity and quality output increased from the first to the fourth quarter (15-minute) by 25 and 37%, respectively. Statistically the improvement was highly significant.
