Numbering of process sections

Section and measuring point

This column is used to describe the single process sections and their measuring points. Each section starts with a beginning event and stops with an end event. The end event of the section is also the beginning event of the following process section.

Reference quantity

The simultaneously edited quantity during a measuring.

Influencing factors

Here the most important influencing factors can be described.

Measured value, class

In addition to the influencing factors, it is also possible to enter their measured values or classes.

Valid for cycles

Here you can choose, for which cycle an entry is valid.

Cy

Cycle: Each process section includes four rows in order to enter the following data:

1st row: without name

2nd row: Performance index L: Can be chosen in steps of 5 between 70-130 for each measured value.

3rd row: Current flyback time ti

4th row: Cumulative time F

t = ØL / 100 * Øti

Target time of section

Reference quantity is included in calculation Average ti = Total ti / (Quantity n * reference quantity)

Value added

Assignment of a value added criterion

Category

Assignment of a category criterion

Tags

In this column you can add tags.

Key figures

∑L/n

∑ti/n

Total Performance level / Quantity and Total Flyback time / Quantity

ØL

Øti

Average performance and flyback time

n'

Number of required cycles for reaching the target value of the confidence interval per process section

s2

s

Variance and standard deviation

v

Coefficient of variation (v = s / Øti *100)

ε

Relative confidence level in percent per process section = Actual value ε for 95 % confidence level

Depending on the symbol, it is displayed whether the specified confidence level is reached. Tooltips provide further information on the meaning of the symbols.

Resources

Here you can choose the resources.

Time type

The time type can be set per section. By default, the time type is set to ttb.

Cycles

Displays or hides the cycles.

Documents 1-3

If the option Take photos using the app is active in the element configuration Time Study, photos can be taken with the app and transferred to TiCon with the time study. These are created as documents in TiCon. The photos are displayed in the document columns on the Process sections tab. Any number of photos can be taken. However, no more than three pictures are displayed per process section, i. e. the document columns 1-3 are filled. The storage format is as follows: file name-[number of process section]-[sequential number].

Column

Explanation

n

Number of cycles

Variance

A measured value of the dispersion, which complies several optimalization criteria of the estimation theory and is, therefore, given priority over the other measures. It is calculated with the square of the standard deviation.

Standard deviation

A unit for a standardized description of the deviation of single values from a sample of its average value. It is commonly referred to as measure of dispersion. Numeric value = square root of sum of the mean square deviation.

ε

Actual value of confidence interval

∑tz = ∑∑tzi

Total of cycle times = Total of all flyback times of all cycles

∑tz²

Square of the total of cycle times

Coefficient of variation

The relation of the standard deviation to the average is also expressed as relative dispersion or variation coefficient. Unit: %

ε'

Target value of confidence interval

n'

Number of required cycles for reaching the target value of the confidence interval

tz2

Square of cycle times

Øtz

Average of all cycle times

t

Total of all target times
