Faster MTM analyses

In manufacturing, every second counts. But conventional MTM analyses (Methods-Time Measurement) are often time-consuming and require special expertise. Test and analyze workflows directly in VR with Halocline and MTMmotion — without manual tracking or complicated calculations.

Instead of documenting work processes extensively, you play through them in Virtual Reality (VR) and receive comparable time values in just a few minutes.

Why MTM analyses with Halocline & MTMmotion?

  • Direct process analysis in VR — Simply work through processes and record them automatically
  • Objective time recording — No manual documentation required
  • Early optimization — identify inefficiencies and unergonomic movements instantly
  • Exporting data for further analyses — get comparable time values without extra effort

That's how it works

Create MTM analyses in VR

With Halocline, you can record and evaluate work processes directly in VR — simple, intuitive and without expert knowledge.

1. Run the process in VR

Start your analysis by simulating the workflow realistically in VR. Halocline automatically detects all movements, gripping routes and interactions.

2. Automatic data collection

Thanks to default values for object types and movements you can start right away. Your movements are recorded in real time — without further input.

3. Export & MTM analysis

The collected data can be exported with one click and further processed in MTMmotion . There, you'll get comparable time values that clearly show how efficient your process is.

4. Optimize & test variants

Use the results to Halocline Layout to create, adapt and retest different variants. So you can optimize process steps in a targeted manner and make well-founded decisions.

With Halocline and MTM-Motion, you create fast and precise time analyses — without any additional effort. Try it out and optimize your processes in just a few minutes!

MTM analysis for various process systems

Halocline supports MTM analyses for various standards:

  • MTM-UAS (Universal Analysis System)
  • MTM-HWD (Human Work Design)
  • MTM-MEK (Extended method standard)
  • MTM-1 (Detailed analysis for high-precision work)

You can choose whether the results are shown as Time Measurement Units (TMU) or seconds. In addition, the accuracy of the analysis is adjustable — depending on your use case.

Conclusion: MTM analyses with Halocline is faster, easier and more efficient

With Halocline and MTMmotion, you create MTM analyses faster than ever — no need for expert knowledge. Instead of lengthy manual calculations, you use automated motion analysis in VR to optimize your processes.

Test now for yourself how you can create more precise MTM analyses in no time with Halocline!
