Description
From a letter written by Gilbreth to Hugo Munsterberg , dated March 19 , 1914 : "610-1024A . This a strip of micro-motion film which shows the assembly of a sixteen strand No . 2 braider at the New England Butt Company . The clock shown in this picture in making ten revolutions per minute , and this fact is recorded on the upper left hand corner of the face of the clock . This picture shows that to make a motion from the packet to the braider takes six thousandths of a minute or a little more than a third of a second . 610-1024B shows another phase of this same final assembly . You will note that in these two pictures there are two clocks , one which revolves in six seconds , and one which revolves in sixty seconds . Naturally the timing devices in the factory receive rough treatment , and we guard against error by using two clocks , and, unless the clocks agree in the picture , we do not use the data from the film.”
