Hello,
I’ve a question regarding Controlled Moves using the Maynard Operation Sequence Technique (M.O.S.T). From the M.O.S.T data card for Controlled Moves, the max processing time is 7 seconds. In situations where the processing time is greater than 7 seconds, may I multiple the index in order to reach the observed processing time?
Example: Operator pushes a button which triggers a case to move along a conveyor from Point A to Point B in 49 seconds. The M.O.S.T data card shows an index of 16 for a process of 7 seconds. May I use an index of 112 (16 * 7) to represent this movement?
I want to say yes because the Index and processing time seem to have a linear relationship, but I’m not sure.

If this is not found on your data card it is on page 64 of the text MOST Work Measurement Systems, Third Edition.

However I am guessing that point A and point B are work stations and the conveyor process time is set to be internal (faster) to the work content of station A or station B…….Therefore will be limited out and have a value of 0 in the frequency.
In most cases conveyor time is never use. Only the time of actual work content of each work station.0 -
